[Leica] Green Shadows Example

[Jayanand Govindaraj]

I have standardized on what is easily available here in India:

Glossy

Hahnemuhle Fine Art Baryta Satin - smooth
Hahnemuhle Photo Rag Baryta - slight texture
Moab Slickrock Metallic

Matte

Hahnemuhle Bamboo - smooth
Hahnemuhle William Turner - textured
Hahnemuhle Torchon - highly textured

Canvas

Hahnemuhle Daguerre Canvas
Hahnemuhle Metallic Canvas

Cannon papers are excellent, but unfortunately not available here.

Cheers
Jayanand
