Digital BW, The Print

This is a bit off topic but I think the craft of B&W imagery is part of this
digital age.   This evening I was watching an old silent movie, now on DVD,
and was enormously struck by the magnificent B&W images that were contained
in it. It was The Passion of Joan of Arc, a French film of about 1927 (a bit
before my time but not much...). I think the camera men that made these
films could teach us a lot about light and seeing. Others that comes to mind
are the many films that James Wong Howe shot. 

Just a thought but something I thought worth sharing.
