Re: split negatives
I think the guy might be onto something. If you buy one of my prints, I'll give you a corrupted .PEF, containing only one fourth of the data of the image. :) On 9/7/05, Derby Chang <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I dunno about this.

Re: split negatives
Well, rather a marketing gag than anything else, I think. I don't know if I wold aim at that kind of collectors - "look, I've got the _proof_ that I have a (nearly) unique picture of a naked woman!" - hehehe... This won't make his photography better nor worse. Mostly harmless, cutting innocent negs with a pair of scissors doesnt't hurt as much as what one of the models has had done to her **pples...

Then cuts the neg in quarters, and 4 of the prints are sold, each with one of the quarters, to ensure that the print is truly limited. Beside the fact that you still have to take his word that he only makes 5 prints, I can't see how destroying the negative makes the photos any better. Don't get me wrong, they aren't bad photos - a bit bland, but nothing really wrong with them.
