[Leica] Glacial Editing

[socphoto at verizon.net (Socolow Carl)]

Bob,

Thanks for looking and the feedback on the verticals. The pictures  
are sized long dimension at 900 at 100 ppi. Maybe I'll drop them down  
to 800 long dimension for the verticals. I also have a MB Pro 15" but  
I have an Eizo 21" hooked to it for my editing.

And Bob, since I first saw a print come up in a developer tray I have  
been hooked both on photography and my belief that a print is the  
desired finished presentation for a photograph. All the photos on my  
site are made into prints. I had an exhibit recently so that gave me  
a chance to make larger prints of 45 of the pictures. It was nice to  
see them all arrayed at eye level for a change. But, with a  
background in darkroom work I hold a high standard for how my prints  
look. As I may have mentioned these were all photographed on film,  
scanned with a fluid mount scanner and then worked on in Photoshop  
until the prints sing. It's always nice when it finally comes out of  
the printer looking right and I can go to sleep.

Thanks again for looking and your praise.

Carl
