Dr. ted I agree totally, Ted, and the bottom line is - if darkroom processing yielded a better result, even with the possibility of chemical poisoning, I would still be doing darkroom processing today; however, I get better results from lightroom and digital printing than I could ever get in the darkroom. There might be some professional darkroom aficionados who would disagree and could eek better results from a file in the darkroom, but I'm sure if Ansel Adams were alive today he would be printing totally digitally in the lightroom. There is a lot of nostalgia and elitism connected with darkroom work that I'm not sure is fully deserved. Tina
