Hi
Just to clarify, I have no problem with multicolor gum prints - they are
amazing, and usually alot more successful, whatever the style, than single
color gums, if only for reasons of getting the fullest tonal range available
from the process. The debate was about color separation negs, which in the
prints I've seen made from them, were made to approximate the look of a
machine done print, or original kodachrome type of look. Once again, I am
curious, and will probably in time experiment with color separated negatives
- but I will try to use the technique to match the variability and
versatility which gum has. Semantics, I know - I, like most others I
suppose, just want what I say to be what I say. sorry
