Making prints
Light makes photography. Embrace light. Admire it. Love it. But above all, know light. Know it for all you are worth, and you will know the key to photography. – George Eastman
I own 4 external hard drives. All are full of photos. In the process of updating my website, I have been filing through all of them. This is no easy task, since some weeks I can shoot over 2000 photos. Needless to say updating is going to take many of my “weekends” to finish. No rush since I’ll be in LC for a while. I am rushing to make prints of my favorites along the way.
Prints are one of the things I miss about film. With film, you had to makes prints or at least a contact sheet. A photo needs to be touched and seen without the flicking of a monitor. I also have a fear that a photo not printed could eventually disappear despite all the efforts made to back up of digital files.
Kodak has a new “silk” paper that I am trying out this order with some of my black & whites. Also have several cold toned photos that I can’t wait to see on Kodak’s Metallic paper. I’m giddy with anticipation!
