And anonymous... What more could anyone ask? The New York Times is selling on the internet very artsy fartsy photography which is as good as any I've seen. Wow what a boom for the craft!! Full frame black border with numbers visible on the sides in oversized mats. Printed on "archival paper" which I assume means not RC paper although it's starting to be the thought that RC paper is just as archival now as fiber paper. Not that you'd see either in two years. It's of courses the processing that counts. Was it double fixed and selenium toned? Not for 38 bucks is my guess. Which is the price. Print in mat. No frame. Oh and each one in a 16x20 museum board mat. Precious precious! I can't even buy museum board that cheap without the print! This will stop the fumes from the machine processed prints from damaging your wall paper. Not exactly a boom for photography but quite the opposite!!! Part of the problem for me is that these are really excellent images. AND WE ARE NOT TOLD WHO SHOT THEM!!!!! ...would be the main problem. I mean why would we want to know a thing like that? For 38 bucks. Plus tax and license. I'm unsubscribing from my new York times Sunday paper subscription. I mean it. Mark Rabiner Photography Portland Oregon http://rabinergroup.com/
