Hi Rebekah, I hang a fair few - I reckon about 30 at the moment - all over the house. Others get framed and given as gifts. Less than half a dozen get framed and sold on commission (portraits). The majority of prints I make find their way into portfolios and plastic sheathed display books. The remaindered prints end up in a bulging folder marked 'unfiled prints'. Those that don't make it off the printer end up on a hard drive with DVD backups. Early on with digital, I decided that prints were what it was all about (for me) and so I print fairly regularly. I buy half a dozen boxes of (25 sheets) 11X8 inch (A4) paper and a couple of boxes of A3, and associated inks, every couple of months.
