Hey Jack, are you really working for ASF ? This is great because there is an option of getting first-hand information about widely known ICE package functionally implemented into popular scanners. I'm considering purchasing of Nikon IV ED which features such functionality...

I wish I could make it to Boston! It is great to hear about the success of others! Jack Phipps Applied Science Fiction I've mostly lurked here since last fall because I've been pursuing a sabbatical project in digital printing. I've learned a lot by doing so, and some of that knowledge has now been put to use. I am truly indebted to all on the list. I've just put the finishing touches on an exhibition of 31 Piezo BW prints now on display through March 1 at the Gallery at Newbury College in Brookline, near Boston MA, USA. I work primarily with the natural landscape as raw subject matter, using 4 x 5 and 5 x 7 formats. I depart from tradition by making two negatives of each scene, reversing one, aligning the pair and printing them as a sandwich. The results can be startlingly different from the original. Imagine Minor White making Rorshach inkblots (clue: he did:-) Printing the work conventionally always entailed complex masking and contrast control. Scanning to Photoshop affords me much greater control, flexibility, and consistency. The negatives were scanned on a Scitex Eversmart (5x7s) and a humble Epson 2450 (less of a step down than one might expect) and printed with an 1160/CIS Austin Franklin sold me on 13 x 19 Photo Rag. There are also two 22 x 30 prints made on a 7000 at the Cone workshop. I have a .pdf of the announcement card, but I'm not sure if I can post it to the list as an attachment. Email me directly if you would like a copy, or any other information. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------ Unsubscribe by mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], with 'unsubscribe filmscanners' or 'unsubscribe filmscanners_digest' (as appropriate) in the message title or body ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe by mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], with 'unsubscribe filmscanners' or 'unsubscribe filmscanners_digest' (as appropriate) in the message title or body
