N2  - Edge of Darkness is unique among practical black-and-white photography books. While most champion the virtues of image manipulation by adding color, Barry Thornton argues for the virtue of image sharpness. In this book, Thornton takes the reader, step-by-illustrated-step, through the logical process of releasing the power and satisfaction of the ultra-definition, direct statement, and fine monochrome photograph; Illustrated with his own stunning landscape pictures, each chapter is filled with technical details and personal insights, making this highly readable volume much more than a technical guide
