I have been shooting B&W on weekends, or off-hours, for more than 20 years (using 35mm film most of the times). This book helps me to understand the digital side of B&W. It will be very useful for anybody, pro or amateur. Makes you a better digital photographer. Strongly recommended.

Beardsworth's book moves you through a variety of ways to achieve fine art black and white images as well as a smathering of other techniques using Photoshop. His directions and tips are easy to understand without having to wade through a lot of jargon. He also simply defines many terms with examples. I found this book inspirational and a help in the technical aspects of creating not-your-run-of-the-mill photographs.

Digital Black & White Photography is one of the few photography/imaging books I have read cover to cover. The book is well written and covers a wide range of topics from camera capture and photography to detailed digital B&W techniques using Photoshop. Learnt lots from this excellent book.
