The full process of taking a photo from a Hasselblad X1D II 50C and making a B&W landscape print. How and why I chose the editing options and how the image becomes the print.

Looks at handling detail and colour as well as black and white conversion choices. Does a medium format sensor make editing images easier?

The second B&W print [GFX100S] has a video covering the workflow I used for that print

There is a lot more about B&W print workflow in my 'Making of" video for a large black and white print at: https://youtu.be/iJxVPtqA59c

There is also a detailed article I've written about that print at:
