Book excerpt: Taking pictures in black and white has always been a popular form of expression in the field of photography. For the beginner, they are a way to add a bit of classical flair to their photos, in an attempt to make more of a visual impact. For the professional, they present an opportunity to work in a medium that is different, and which makes for quite an adventure in itself, editing wise. While it may appear fairly simple to shoot in black and white, or monochrome, getting a result that actual titillates the mind and the imagination is quite complicated. There are a myriad of factors to consider when going full monochrome. The image format and how much editing flexibility it provides, the amount of contrast, from pitch black to snow white, in the photo, the textures, the shapes and the depth, are just some of the factors. The range of techniques that go into monochrome photography make it an art form that needs to be learnt in depth, before exploring further possibilities. Whether you are new to photography in general, or you haven't really explored the black and white realm, or even if you are experienced yet looking to do more in monochrome, this guide can benefit you to no end. Be it simply framing the photo, to advanced techniques such as editing monochromatic RAW, this guide has all the tips and tricks you need, to make an experience out of black and white photography. Remember that you may not have access to all the accessories, equipment and/or software mentioned in the book. If so, you can always look for an alternative to any of the aforementioned, but which functions similarly.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last few years, most books on photography have been focused on the new breed of cameras and how to master the digital imaging workflow. In The Art of Black and White Photography author and photographer Torsten Andreas Hoffmann takes a different approach, focusing on image composition and image capture, with an emphasis on the creative aspects of black and white photography rather than on the digital workflow. After introducing the ground rules of composition, Hoffmann illustrates their applications with his own stunning black and white images that cover various photographic genres, including architecture, street photography, portraiture, and surreal photography. Also discussed are the elements of a "photographic language"', which distinguishes creative photography from random shooting. Finally, you will learn valuable post-processing techniques, mostly using Photoshop, that emphasize the functions necessary for creating outstanding black and white images. This second edition has been updated to include Photoshop CS5, as well as brand new images, content, and a revised layout.
