LAB grayscale space from Roy
2004-12-08 by Johnny Eades
Hello folks, I am proud to be a part of this newsgroup,especially since we have such talented and dedicated members such as Roy Harrington; who has not only offered us the wonderful QuadTone RIP for both the MAC users ,but also the Windows users also. I've been working in digital and BW printing for about 2.5 years and now, with the aid of QTR and the newly introduced LAB grayscale space; am able to produce prints that I only dreamed of at the beginning of my digital journey. I am astounded at the simplicity of the workflow now after the additions to our photographic arsenal of the two items from Roy. Not to slight Paul Roark who has been instrumental in providing the workflow and curves for MIS UT2 inks, along with other offerings from both him and MIS, I use both techniques and tools in my endeavors to put on paper what I see and feel at the time of exposure. Both are tools of the photographer that I feel will enable all of us to realize our potential as image creators if we apply ourselves to the image making and duly apply ourselves to the print process. Now with these tools at our disposal, I think the sky's the limit. Thanks again to Roy and Paul. Your friend in Photography, Johnny
