Hi Ted!

Thank you very much for looking and commenting.

Yes, I?m back to film, not 100% or not yet ?? Why? maybe you and others will 
ask if I?m lucky to have a Monochrom that produces superb B&W images. IMHO 
the reason is simply, if you believe that a real picture is a printed one, 
and in addition the print is made from film in Silver Gelatin Baryta 
paper?., as I?ve did for my exhibition in Chicago, the quality is amazing 
and IMHO much better than any inkjet print. I have two friends in Barcelona 
they are doing a very nice, EXCELLENT! work in Barcelona with Piezzography , 
but I must say  again IMHO every medium has his own technology, the better 
technology to match film is the darkroom, and the better for digital inkjet 
and piezography. Maybe or FOR SURE! I belong to a different generation that 
our taste and preferences are for the classical film days ?. this is a 
question of preferences ? and my choice that I enjoy very much.

Cheers
LLuis
