Mastering Black-And-White Photography: From Camera to Darkroom

Rating:
Summary: Take you to the next level...
Review: Very well written. Each sentence contains useful information....and you must concentrate while reading. What it lacks in example pictures, it makes up for in illustrations and concise writing. A good portion of the book covers basics of metering, composition and other basics necessary for good photography. Has good checklists that summarize the steps of printing, developing, equipment needs, etc. I think this book is well suited to someone who is serious about learning the fundamentals.
