Matte or Pearl

2008-05-21 by alankushnir

Last week I spent 4 information packed days at the Stephen Johnson BW
Workshop in Pacifica, CA. I recommend this workshop to people with
intermediate to advanced skills. I picked up lots of useful
information and was able to take my BW efforts to a higher level.

During the workshop, I made lots of BW prints with both a matte paper
( Epson Velvet FA) and pearl paper (Han PR Pearl) .  Can I poll the
members of this group as to which general type of paper they favor for
BW? I understand its a personal preference, but I am curious as to
what is being used today by the members of the group:  Matte , Pearl,
or Both (depending on the image)
Thanks.
