The Fine Art of Photographing in Black & White

  This  presentation will explore historical aspects of black and white photography and some of the pioneering artists  who helped the medium gain acceptance as an art form.  It will also examine the works of contemporary masters such as the renowned Ernest H. Brooks II  and others — and  a variety of techniques (and photographic examples) both digital, analog and “hybrid” that are being used to create new and different types of expressive black and white underwater imagery.  This presentation may help you re-evaluate how you see and “feel” your photographic  subjects, even the ones that you may have previously felt too commonplace and mundane.  This lecture will also delve into the thought process of photographing in black and white and examine the concepts of “previsualizaton,” “post-visualization,” and the  “non-process” of simply allowing and trusting our intuition to help us create images conveyed in our own unique artistic voice.
