Digital BW, The Print

Mark:
As I said, the man is a curator of some very significant photo
exhibitions, which have included a fair number of digitally printed
images. So I would consider him savy about good photos.  He already
knew I printed digitally. But all I told him was that they had been
printed by different methods, with no other infomation furnished. 

Simply this was one experts view of the overall comparative quality of
two sets of identical images, differing only in one set being hextone,
one Black Only. His opinions may have been different given other
subject matter. But it met my goal of an getting the opinion of an
expert yet unbiased person.

Of course, we each should do what we like best. Not what anyone else
thinks.
