Re: Black and White landscape exhibit

Hello Tyler,

>Thanks, don't mean to hype...

I don't consider it hype.  I appreciate the notice, especially with
the links.  I like NP's strong contrast images (I often don't care for
it but he has an exceptional touch), but I really prefer the longer
scale approach in your work.  I just looked at the Italy series for
the first time - lovely.



>Nick, who's prints I have not seen, apparently makes small impressive
>silver prints-

How are you defining "small" here?  I'm asking because I prefer small
prints, but it means different things to different people (for some,
11x14 is small, but for me that's large).  I'm also interested in how
they will be hung.  It's hard to mix large and small prints together.
  Any chance you can take a snapshot for us?

Last winter I saw a wonderful traveling Edward Weston exhibit and of
course everything was 8x10 or smaller.  Was very inspiring, with a
good mixture of his well known and lesser known works.

How are you printing these days?  I have it in mind that you use K7,
but not really sure...

I wish I could see it, but since I'm in Florida...it's a fer piece to
go.  Good luck with the show.  May you sell a ton of prints.

Regards,
Clayton
