Digital BW, The Print

Hi Harvey,

I guess it seems to be a hangover from the old portrait industry. On my
color price list I use custom color and masterpiece. Both are enlarger
prints, the main difference is retouching. I am not hung up on names, I do
think of keeping it honest and simple is the best way.

Fido and Fido Masterpiece  might work if I was selling dog food, with and
without meat in it.<G>
Sebastian, Sebastian Ultra hold, and Sebastian Max hold for hair spray.

Regards,

John in Okc

I'm saying is that if you are not
