Choosing between glossy and matte paper for black and white photos depends on the desired finish. Glossy paper provides a vibrant and high-contrast look, making the blacks appear deeper. However, matte paper offers a softer finish, reducing reflections and giving a more artistic feel to the image. Both have their advantages, depending on your style.
