[Digital BW] Re: Piezo v. Epson resolution -- was (unknown)

Hi everyone:

This is just an experience that I have had so take from it what you 
will. My wife wanted some Weston veggie pictures for our kitchen. I 
didn't want to put my real Cole-Edward "China Cove" in the kitchen so 
I searched Google for some Weston favorites. Found Pepper No. 30, the 
Cabbage leaves, the halved Artichoke and a few others. I found the 
largest (pixel size) and best contrast and detail images I could 
find. All save one were 400 pixels or less on the long dimension. I 
was able to find a full size Pepper No 30 @ 72 dpi. After playing 
with various sharpening techniques and the levels a little I printed 
them out on Piezo at 4x5" or close to it. I have to tell you that 
these little web snips look beautiful on Piezo and Archival Matte 
paper. Now they adorn our kitchen.
