I hadn't decided yet. Lyson also sell a set of quadtone inks, again, no software.
The Cone stuff is expensive, because of the software. I hear it's good, though.

Hi Paul, you've been quite sensitive these days. I was just pointing
out the differences I observed ... I made no judgments. It seems that
your prejudices are coming through loud and clear, though.

It could also be said that your reply carries "an air of

Hi Shel,
I think characterizing the portraiture on PUG as "someone looking into
the camera and smiling" is condescending and judgmental. I also felt it
was incorrect for you to state unequivocally that documentary style
photos "tend to be a lot more dynamic and interesting." It was opinion
stated

You're usually one of my favourite correspondents to PDML, but this time
you've gone off half-cocked. The inconsistency of your argument is a

William,
Then I presume your problem is subject distortion rather than blur.
Rather like the early 1900s shots of racing cars leaning forwards
because of the slow traverse of the Graflex FP shutter. Unfortunately
for P67 fans the only solution is to know what type of movement causes
the problem

Oh, I don't know...
I enjoyed Cameron's page, but would sure like to know
where these pictures were taken, It doesn't look like Lynn,
Mass. It may not even be in the USA.

Jost got the photo in the mail yesterday. Much thanks. It's really beautiful.
