Re: [Digital BW] Longevity & Archival (was Septones LONG)

2003-08-27 by D. Hill

I often wonder if our counterparts 100 years back
spent as much time going back and forth about how long
their prints would last?  

I imagine them, hopping from left foot to right,
eagerly running to the window every time they heard
the mail horse clop up to the door.  Oh, what is the
news of lenny's recent test of brown egg albumen
compared to that of carl's more daring gelatin size?

God bless the internet.

Anyway, as photography is the bastard child of the
arts - imagine where that puts us, the users of
photography's bastard child, inkjet printing. 
Longevity be damned - just create and show great work.
