Black and white news
It seems from what I have read in magazines etc that black and white photography has been on the increase and is in a revival stage, more and more people are finding that to express there feelings through photographic art are finding mono the way to go, certain art shops that sell my prints and in the UK and USA have told me that its in great demand and increased sales are proving it to be true, so the old medium is still strong, more and more companies such as Ilford~ Harman are expanding there range of papers to suit the medium, printer manufactures are also quenching the demand and now sell superb mono printers to the general public, colour has its place obviously, but its nice to be part of the old way and a pleasure to see what is happening.
Long live mono

Mono is Dead! Long Live Mono! 
With the revival of this art form Martin what would you think to getting sponsorship from an appropriate company for an annual competition?

Re: Black and white news
Well in the coming weeks I have a meeting with Ilford~Harman PR, this is something I will mention to them, they are synonymous with B£W products both digital and wet dark room plus there superb range of films and papers, so we will see what happens from there.
