Will it be possible to visualise beautifully distributed grains as you see in the works by Ralph Gibson and Michael Kenna, to name a few, with digital devices? I used to scan my film (Neopan 1600 or Tri-X) at 2700 dpi and print it with Fuji Pictrography 3000 at 400 dpi. As you imagine, I could see no grains. Well, I may be completely wrong in trying to visualise silver grains with digital devices. BTW, I do like inkjet printouts in some settings (e.g., on paper for water painting). You can sometimes have very interesting results. ;-) Mikiro Mori Strasbourg, Europe ****************** Visit my gallery at http://members.tripod.com/arbos3/cigogne/index.html
