110 — Crash course in black and white film photography

Pho­tog­ra­phy pod­cast #110 gives you a full on crash course in black and white film pho­tog­ra­phy in around 30 min­utes. Black and white film pho­tog­ra­phy is not at all dead. Many cre­ative pho­tog­ra­phers are get­ting their hands wet in a tra­di­tional dark­room.  If you’ve ever wanted to know what’s involved in black and white pho­tog­ra­phy, I take you through the entire process. We talk about film cam­eras, film, devel­op­ing film, print­ing con­tact sheets and print­ing a final print.
