If all the DSLR users (who will be attending GFM NPW) want to bring a large print along, so will I. It's appreciated that different printers and different ways of doing things will result in a pretty mixed bag, but it would be interesting and I for one would love to hear of others' workflows. Something with a good tonal range, areas with plenty of detail, other areas with soft focus. Mine will be rolled up in a cardboard tube. I'll bring a few. BTW, y'all been hearing about BA flight 223 being cancelled a couple of times at Heathrow this week, the 3pm to Washington Dulles? You guessed it: I'm booked on it, although not til June. British Intelligence were tipped off when they saw these overweight blokes waiting to board. 'Excuse me sir, is this your bit of wire that just dropped out of your overcoat?'
