Digital BW, The Print

John, thanks for your reply. I've tried Entrada's bw but not the 
natural. 

I am white. The Native Americans are Navajo. They are paid models. I 
was raised in New Mexico and have always  been attracted to Native 
American and southwestern culture. Living in Albuquerque you are 
probably aware that photography of American indians can be a sensitve 
issue. Past exploitation of Native Americans may play a role for some 
in their feelings about being photographed.  I myself, do not like it 
if someone photographs me w/o my permission.
