I'll admit to being a very amateur photographer as I dont spend nearly enough time out and about with my camera, which is a Canon EOS Elan. I just recently tried my hand at black and white photography, but i've really got no clue on how to use light to my advantage, as I've always been one to find something I feel would make a great picture and take it. I discovered quite recently that this theory doesn't work as well with black and white film.
So does anybody have any tips/hints for me, or maybe a helpful link or two for me? I'd sure appreciate it.
