Easy ain't got nothing to do with it. It's all about market value. A baryta
(!) photograph, and this is a purposeful usage of the term, will by far
outstrip the investment value over an ink jet print. I think we at this
stage of a techne transition owe it to future generations. And I do make a
distinction between a photograph, as coined originally, and the current
usage of a "print."
