Fine-Art Printing Diaries: Setting up
This series of posts will be on getting serious (I hope) about fine-art printing. In the film days, I didn’t bother developing and printing myself; first, I didn’t have the space for a darkroom, and then I was reluctant to deal with the chemicals. More importantly, there were plenty of overnight development labs in town and professional print makers who had a certain affinity for art. Color rendition wasn’t an issue to discuss over a 4×5 slide on a color corrected light table. And I had a lot of prints done, as they were the only way to enjoy images, except perhaps for 6×6 slide projections.
