RE: [Digital BW] DMax and Glossy Prints - Are We Kidding Ourselves?

2005-03-11 by Seth

Don't get me wrong.  I like Ilford Pearl, just have fits with it and
pigments.  Any gloss beyond that I don't mess with.

But, Hawk Mountain Merlin and Osprey, along with Epson DWM are my mainstays.
Red River for cards, but they don't pay enough for the effort.
