Digital BW, The Print

I stand corrected.  The RC papers are good for contact sheets and proofs
that you want to hang up for a while until you decide how to print it.  But,
with the fiber papers it is nice to hold them all day in a big tray with a
siphon, then finish them all at once.  All of that is coming to an end,
however...I put the MIS VM-S inks in my printer yesterday.  So far, so good.
I haven't been able to get the MIS inks to work for me in the past, but now
they do for some reason.  Personally, I wish they'd hurry up and get all
this digital stuff perfected so I don't have to go back in the darkroom.
It's cold and it's dark and you can't sip a Scotch (at least you're not
supposed to) waiting for inspiration to strike.
