Synopsis
The ability to create a stunning black and white image remains one of photography's greatest and most aspirational skills. Being able to "see" in black and white is an enviable capability, and a well-crafted black and white photograph remains the finest of the fine arts. Master photographer Vincent Versace has spent his career teaching the art of perception and how to translate it into extraordinary black and white images. In From Oz to Kansas: Almost Every Black and White Conversion Technique Known to Man, Versace discusses digital black and white photography-with a nod to traditional film-based techniques. As Versace states, today the goal is "to use what was right and good about silver photography, leaving behind what was limiting, and use what is right and good about digital photography, while avoiding its pitfalls. This is what this book is all about." The reason you must learn "almost every black and white conversion technique known to man" is because, depending on the image-and your goals for it-there are many paths you can take in order to arrive at your final destination. Working through Versace's techniques will give you the essential knowledge you need, as well as the ability to select the appropriate conversion technique for any image, allowing you to create a black and white image that best and most accurately reflects what you felt at the moment that you pressed the shutter.

- 1***l (356)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseBook was advertised as in ‘Good’ condition, but is terrible condition after you actually open the book. I reached out to the seller saying that it is unreadable and sent multiple photos of heavy ink underlining on dozens and dozens of pages throughout the book. Ink writing in margins, chapter titles, etc. seller offered a 50% refund and I again responded that the book is unreadable. He stated that was in ‘good’ condition when he sent it, eBay has standards and this book is in poor condition.
