Digital BW, The Print

just a quick note.
i was just at your web site, you have really strong work.
it is my personal oppion that you should be charging more for your work!
matted is one thing, but also framing? your work speaks for itself.
kindly
alex lemus

  I'm curious.  Not exactly relevant to your message, but has anyone in the
  group ever had a buyer inquire as to the medium?  I never have, nor have I
  found anyone who had any interest when I explained it.  I just call them
  photographs.  The viewer either responds to the image, or not.  Of course,
  this excludes other photographers (who may never see the image) and art
  dealers (who seem compelled to identify a process in fine detail).  But my
  prints don't rise to that level...they're $250 prints (matted and framed, I
  might add) done for my own amusement and amazement and hopefully the
  enjoyment of others, definitely not for a living.

  an amusing if somewhat sad thread here:

  "Anybody else getting heartburn with the new 'Carbon Print' ?

  But am I just being a curmudgeon for thinking that calling an inkjet print a
  'carbon print' is just a little disingenuous? There is a 100+ years of a
  traditionally accepted meaning of the phrase 'carbon print', and to have
  this term co-opted in the interest of avoiding 'calling a spade a spade'
  just seems shameful...."
