a starting point
For the past few years I have had an idea rattling around in my head, it mutated several times until it finally congealed into something I felt comfortable with and thought would work.
The result is the Black & White Underground, a place where those few remaining renegade photographers that refuse to give up B & W photography can hang out, share ideas and techniques with others. It is a place where everyone is welcome, film and digital alike, it is a place for passing on the passion of B & W photography from one generation to the next.
This is the starting point for the Black & White Underground, a simple blog that I hope over the next several months will transform into a Web site with a forum for sharing ideas, critiques, online classes and more.
If you are one of those few crazy types that people keep asking “Don’t you do color?” then stop by, leave a comment and join up. Who knows where it will lead, but ask anyone that knows me, they will tell you it will be a hell of a ride.
thanks to andy, lowry, scootie, pat, the late night garage crew and my wife linda for helping get this started

p.s. I am new to the blog thing so please give me some time to get it all figured out, the music for tonight is the Matthew Sturm Band live at Mid City Grill.
Excellent plan, Cort…I will be checking back…

Great idea Cort. I have begun exploring the world of BW a little more since Oklahoma.

Bravo! Great idea!!! There is just nothing better than a great B&W photograph but then again I am kind of “old school”. Photography will always be B&W and darkrooms to me. I will definitely be dropping in to see what you have going on here.
