SUMMARY:April Challenge - Black & White
DESCRIPTION:Time to shoot only in Black and White straight from your camera (no converting color photos later- that’s easy\, that’s comfortable). Why do it\, Dennis? Because it’s a challenge\, folks! \n\n\n\nThis is about getting super familiar with your camera (seriously pull out those manuals and this is a nod to Ken Mitchell\, a stickler for reading your camera manuals).  \n\n\n\nLet’s really dive into the beauty of Black and White Photography by focusing on key elements like contrast\, light\, shadows\, textures and form. If you are wondering how to change your settings read your manual or hop on YouTube. Also\, check out our WhatsApp community for video suggestions to help out. \n\n\n\nSo\, grab your cameras and cellphones switch over to Monochrome mode and start clicking!!  \n\n\n\nParticipating members will submit their images for Show & Tell on May 19th \n\n\n\nImages should be submitted no later than Sunday May 17\, 2026 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nResources:\n\n\n\n– \n\n\n\nWPCC Black & White Guide: A guide to in-camera black and white photography for the major camera manufacturer’s used by camera club members (AI prepared so there may be some discrepancies): https://washingtonparkcameraclub.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/WPCC_Black_White_Guide.pdf \n\n\n\n– \n\n\n\n[ External Link ] 6 Tips for Shooting Black and White Photography: https://www.masterclass.com/articles/tips-for-shooting-black-and-white-photography
