Digital BW, The Print

Consider using a HDR (high dynamic range) technique with a 3-4 stop range 
over and under if possible.  HDR can be spectacular in the way it can 
control shadows and highlights.  Have the area well surveyed ahead of time 
including test shots, sounds like a two or three day shoot.  The optimum 
time range to take the photos is always less that one thinks it will be. 
Preparation may be the most important part of the project.

Subject: [Digital BW] Moon rise and Baobabs


Here's a photographic question that since I intend to print B & W, shouldn't
be too far off topic. There is a place in Botswana called the Nxai Pans and
adjacent to it is a smaller pan that has as its most prominent feature,
Baines Baobabs, a grove of 7 massive trees isolated from the interference of
any other trees or brush on a small rise at the pans edge.
