Hi Shel,

It's not important for the blacks to show detail.

Please explain. While I no longer work in a darkroom, I used to spend a LOT of time there, looking at my B&W negs, and printing, and I was amazed at how much detail negatives contain, vs. what a print shows.
I was fascinated with the detail in the black. . .
Which is why I don't understand your comment. Why is it not important?
Rather, why do you _say_ it's not important?


This is B&W photography ... shadow and light.

Frank,
That's amazing image, the tonality is great, except, (you knew there
had to be one), the blacks don't show any detail, true the print may show
more detail than the scan but... Regardless you caught this one just right.
