Another thought here, Frank -- you can treat your digital images just like film 
and go with the standard film workflow: take card to lab, get proofs, agonize 
over proofs, return to lab for enlargements.

I didn't mean to say that a digital product couldn't be beautiful or
art.  Yours are certainly both.

For me, film works, and has a feel to it that I like.  Digital leaves
me cold - but that's just me.

I'm not saying that digitally derived prints can't be gorgeous - of
course they can.  But, as an amateur, I don't need or want to consider
"work flow" or any of that crap.  I take pix, if they're decent
enough, they may end up as prints.

However, I didn't mean my post to in any way denigrate digital for
others, or to denigrate the results that others are able to obtain
from digital.

cheers,
frank
