Digital BW, The Print

Carolyn, always good to be pointed to some great images. I feel like I get
very good print output now but you never know it for sure until you see what
the experts can do.  I obviously understand the proposition of the "quad
ink" guys when Epson etc are only producing 1-2 greys.  Having used 3 I am
astonished Tyler and Jon want 6 or 7 (I'll forget about those that want 256
for the moment).  I'd love to see some of these prints (or better a side by
side of what I can produce vs them) so that I can see what I can strive for
- alongside my own efforts in capturing good images of course!

(Love your website BTW)
