Some time ago, I was in an exhibit at the Museum of Architecture and design,
here in LA. Fortunately I had 11x14 photographs made from 4x5's up on the
wall. Another exhibitor had blow ups made with negs from a 'blad. To that
photographer's misfortune, the photographs were right alongside ink jet
prints. The ink jet prints blew those photographs out of the water.
