The show director is getting fiber base 8x10's of the 20 best images and I'm making RC 5x7's to give out to some of the cast members. After that, I'm working on B&W landscapes, fiber base, selenium toned.I have made a modest incursion into the digital world enough for some web publishing and I may fool with some color work for fun output to an Epson 700 to make small prints to display. For longevity and the "look" I'm still into the smelly chemicals and traditional prints. And will be for the forseeable future. Mike Gardner
