[alt-photo] HP Large format negatives & Art

[Andy Schmitt]

Whew...I was off the network for several days & gee did I have a lot to swim
through....

Interesting argument....reminds me of when George Eastman introduced the
hated flexible film....
What, what, what??? No glass plates??? Anyone can do it?? You can make them
big, big, big??
Awful...Art is dead.....
 

Things change. Change ADD's abilities w/o forcing you to use them. 
Heck, I think prints made with wetplate negatives far out strip that new
fangled film stuff for tonal range & texture.

SO....keep up the discussion, but PLEASE TRIM YOUR REPLIES!

And have a great rest of your weekend
