Re: Illuminata Photo Cotton

Hi Duane, 
With the Eric Bullock's small gamut profiles, yes, there is a slight 
shift in the highlights going from daylight to tungsten light (Their 
balanced at 5000K I believe...), but it is minimal. I actually prefer 
the small gamut profile to QTR for this paper.  
For QTR w/ matte papers I much prefer Hahn photo rag and the 
Moab's...  My favorite paper w/ QTR is still semi-matte w/ a liberal 
dose of Printshield.
