Davis surveys these in detail...Perhaps this book's most compelling hallmark is its editorial skew. It's as much about communication as it is about technique, with emphasis on the stories that accompany Davis' powerful photos."---Rangefinder Magazine "In The Photographer's Black & White Handbook, Harold Davis unveils a universe of digital conversion tools as they apply to all genres, emphasizing not only technique but the unique editorial backstory that accompanies each of his powerful illustrations."---Focus Review, January 2017 Rangefinder "Exceptionally well informed, thoroughly 'user friendly' in organization and presentation, exceptionally well written. Of special note are the beautiful photographs Harold Davis chosen from his own work to inspire and guide aspiring photographers."---Midwest Book Review "Ably balancing technical information with creative concerns, Davis's guide will help readers make better black-and-white photos."---Library Journal "Harold Davis is the digital black and white equal of Ansel Adams's traditional wet photography. Adams would be awed by Davis's work. In The Photographer's Black and White Handbook Davis presents a large number of his photographs, and virtually every one is a masterpiece, ready for gallery or museum exhibit. In spite of the coffee-table quality of this volume, Davis meant to give us a teaching tool, a handbook for serious digital photographers."---Seattle Book Review About the Author Harold Davis is a professional photographer and digital artist whose work is widely collected.
