Foundations of Photography Black and White Video Tutorials

In Foundations of Photography: Black and White, Ben Long shows photographers how to develop a black and white vocabulary and explains the considerations to take into account when shooting for this medium.

Along the way, he demonstrates some exposure strategies for getting the best images.
