NOTES ON BLACK AND WHITE
Black and white photographs record the amount of light reflected off a subject as a linear tonal progression from white (maximum light reflected) to black (minimum light reflected). Colour records the wavelength of light reflected.

Freed from the mass of variables and surplus information presented to the eye by colour, black and white photographs emphasise composition, texture, tone,contrast and detail. This coincides neatly with the "onboard" editing process artists use when drawing or painting.

BOARD STIFF
A stylised study in stiff elegance. Almost impossible to achieve from life. This photograph was by far the best of the shoot and achieves a sophisticated and stylish 1930s art deco feel from the simplest of setups.
