Digital BW, The Print

The good print is entirely up to the printer and photographer.

That said, if you sell you have to print what the buyer wants.

Not all images are the same. One might fit your vision all dark and contrasty. One with diffused light might work better with smooth transition from black to white. The good print is just the artistic match to the vision.

Your club is worthwhile. Get opinions from the others printers
