Digital BW, The Print

Before you pick on Bruce I would suggest that if read his piece 
carefully you will see that he supportive of the medium.

He is biased toward the silver print and with good reason, he can 
print circles around many, but I suggest that if his comments bother 
you then perhaps you are among the many who do not care to learn his 
craft, or appreciate it, or are two thin skinned to read his 
statemant carefully.  I feel that I have seen beautiful even great 
prints on conventional silver paper and I have seen beautiful and 
even great prints made via digital printing.  They should not be 
compared, both can be beautiful in their own right, but not compared 
to each other.  It is sort of like saying that all fine art painting 
that is not  oil, acrylic, water color or whatever is the only medium 
to produce fine art in, and all the other media are invalid.

Instead of worrying about which is better, understand your medium and 
do the best that you can with it.  If your vision is valid then your 
art will be appreciated, no matter what it is produce with.
