Richard, You can look in the Altphoto process archive and find perhaps
several thousand posts on the subject. ; ) yeah, it is a well known talked
about idea. And you'll find some very knowledgeable people that can help you
with those processes at the same time on the alt photo process list.

Hi,
it has just occurred to me that being able to output a digital 
negative at any size makes techniques from the 1840's appealing. Sun 
prints, which are contact prints, are no longer restricted by the 
original negative size - one can print a big inkjet negative on film 
and then make a contact print.

And, because there was no photographic industry at the time these 
methods were invented, it seems perfect for a tinkerer (as many of us 
are) ... one doesn't need to invest much in gear to achieve this.

The time has never been better.

But I just can't find the time ... <sigh> ... one day!

Anyone tried this?

thanks,
Richard
