Hi Jim - I haven't been posting much lately because I've been too busy
printing - Cibachrome 16x20's in fact! They are Leica Northcoast
landscapes, to be hung in all the rooms at the new Holiday Express being
built by the airport. Sort of a "gateway to the redwoods" theme for the
hotel. The hotel owners want one of my Leica aerial images as the cover for
their brochure, too. Am also building a new camera platform for a Cessna
182, now that the Coast Guard helicopter flights are finished. Should be
flying with the Hasselblads again in about two weeks on the aerial mapping
project. 

Anyway, are you making masks for 35mm slides? I've seen masks for larger
size transparencies. How do you do it for the little Leica images? I have
printed a few images where a contrast reducing mask would sure have been
helpful.
