I agree with Don - some prints look great big, and some small. Brooks Jensen had an essay on this some time ago in Lenswork - on how some prints are meant to be enjoyed handheld. I guess that is one of the reasons I take part in print exchanges - I like looking at the fine detail that is visible in a print. Actually I did another set of Coconut Leaves, but in Black & White: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jayanand/sets/72057594071280695/ The idea was to explore the shapes available on the leaves on one tree..... This set is taken on OT equipment - Nikon D70, 80-400 VR lens but on a tripod, from the verandah of my house. Cheers Jayanand Don Dory wrote: > Jayanand, > I think that I like your coconut leaves.
