Moose’s B&W Technique

The B&W photos on the blog have been generating some darn interesting questions. I appreciate the opportunity to talk with photographers about B&W. How I previsualize in the viewfinder B&W is something I’m trying to think through so I can present that side better. I don’t approach it in the classical style, it’s more my own hap hazarded way of just romanticizing the tones that I see. Let’s be honest, I do very little the way it’s is supposed to be done, I just do it.

To that end, I created this little video on how I finish my B&W vision in the digital darkroom. I hope this gets you up and going.
