It's great to print big! Lee!
I made an attempt to go 16x20 in the last months and have a new portfolio of
prints in that size but I've had it.
Back to the more humane 11x14 the size most of the shows I've seeen in the last
year were in. And you can put them in your backpack.
I'm had most of my shows 16x20 but a lot 11x14. One 5x7. I expect to have one in
20x24 in the next years I've set my darkroom up for that.
I think an "artist" gets to decide what size his work should be. What size EACH
PRINT should be. Some should be bigger than others some think.
