Digital BW, The Print

This subject has been beat to death more times than I can count, but
the consensus seems to be that they are simply two different mediums
and they will never look exactly alike, and each has its own intrinsic
beauty.  Many accomplished fine art photographers have switched and
report that their prints are "better" (whatever that means to them). 
Many others are so attuned to the look and feel of emulsion prints
that no digitial print will ever meet their expectations.  Both are
right.  So choose your weapon and get to work <g>.

Regards,
Clayton
