If one were to say it's a "Leica glow look?" it might be pushing it a little. But it makes a beautiful print almost like a painting. After all flowers don't always have to be a catalogue sharp illustration. She who must be obeyed as soon as she saw it, is having it framed as we speak! :-) Hey a guy can't get any better compliment than when his wife of 56 years immediately takes the print out of your hands and off to the framing shop! :-) But she might be a tad bias because she's been looking at my stuff from the beginning as she gave me the first camera for a birthday gift right after we were married and started this wicked wicked life of mine! ;-) . Quite frankly it does make a beautiful print on Crane's MUSEO 100% cotton, Velina Finish Bright White paper. The printer, Epson 2200. ted
