Digital BW, The Print

For many years I tried to produce silver prints in the darkroom that look like what I am getting on digital: something akin to platinum, but not quite.  One of the freedoms of the plainum process was the ability to pick essentially whatever paper you wanted to best represent your idea.  Now that I can do that, I certainly don't want to go back.  But, the promise of 2+ dmax is great.  It's close to completing the materials selection loop.  I've got a roll of Semi-gloss, and a rool of Ultrasmooth Fine Art arriving tomorrow.  Life is good.

i agree Truman. in fact i went to inkjet so i could
get color on matte. i like it so much more than the RC
paper color is always on. same with B&W. when we can
get an air dried fiber look, i will use it in addition
to matte printing. but not at the expense of matte.
right on
