Digital BW, The Print

All  -
 
(Here's a rant!)  I print with Ultrachrome, and I like it.  But, Clyde is doing a VERY SERIOUS DISERVICE to all of us if he is using Ultrachrom inks and calling them carbon.  I don't know the man, but if any of you do, you should have a little talk with him.  The work that Paul Roark, and the rest of you are doing with the caron inks will be greatly set back by this sort of thing.

P.S.  I he is using carbon inks, I respectfully retract these statements.

hi list.

just noticed in a recent newsletter that my idol/god/inspiration, 
etc. Clyde Butcher is now offering 'archival carbon prints'.  looks 
like he is using a large-format epson with ultra-chrome inks.

the really disturbing thing is that he is selling them for a 
fraction of what he is selling his traditional photographs for ($45.-
for a carbon 11x14 as opposed to $375.- for a 11x14 
traditional !!!).  i assume they are neither limited nor signed.  if 
not, that could spell trouble for someone like me who is not as 
famous as he is and is asking a heck of a lot more for a 11x14 
carbon print.

anyway, the links is below if you are interested.
