'White carbon' is a chemically nonsensical name for precipitated silica. This could well be part of the coating that gives all ink jet platine papers a similar look and feel. Silica is generally ...

Mark, Thanks for your response and for all of your testing work.  I feel for your struggles with funding and the collective will. I also understand the need for pragmatism in the realm of stability ...

Entrada Natural is a nice, reasonably stable paper.  I use it myself occasionally. As for Entrada Bright, I would not touch it with the proverbial ten foot pole because of its OBA content. It is ...

Yup... I agree with both of your statements.

My apologies,  if I offended.  That was not my intent. A case of great minds thinking alike!! I, too, do most of my printing on uncoated papers... Stonehenge Warm and Arches Hot Press are my favorites.

Arches Platine... the original... was designed for platinum/palladium printing. It contains no buffering compounds aka "alkaline reserve" and its sizing is optimized for hand coating. This paper is ...

Not to mention storage conditions! All of what you say is true, but it does not negate the fact that the term "archival" is almost as poorly (loosely?) defined as the term "fine art". And don't get ...

This is a very interesting and unusual photo! 1. Making a decently sharp photo of dragonflies in flight is difficult. 2. Being able to catch a mating wheel in flight is rare 3.  Having the male in ...

To answer your question In one word.... "marketing " There is no standard definition of "fine art" in this context nor in any other context, for that matter.

Exactly my thought as well!!!

If this works for you, all is good, but consider this... The sequence of photos is not the only factor in book design.  Additionally, how the pairs of photos in a two page spread relate to each ...

I use something like these... https://www.amazon.com/American-Metalcraft-TR48-Stainless-48-Inch/dp/B003X31Q2C . Mine are more than a decade old, so they are most likely not this exact model. I use ...

How do you hang an unmounted, unframed photograph (which is what the OP asked about) from this interesting device? Regards,

I'm old fashioned... or maybe that is just plain old! I print them out using Lightroom's contact sheet function,  cut the photos apart,  lay them out on the table and start shuffling. It takes me ...

First photo looks like Capitol Reef. All the photos are very nice! Regards

Duggal (www.duggal.com) I have not used them recently (it has probably been five years or longer),  but they do first rate work.  They are not inexpensive but top notch work rarely is.

Two more... Can you find the butterfly? Same butterfly,  different angle!

A few of mine. All made in the wild. #1 #2 #3 #4 #5 Regards,

I have no clue as to how effective ozone would be in inactivating corona virus. The devil is in the details... concentration of ozone, time of exposure, temperature, etc. are all important. An ...

This is a retired chemist talking... Ozone is a strong oxidizing agent. It kills microorganisms by causing oxidative damage to the organic molecules which comprise them. The plastic pieces of your ...
