Well  said, John. In the end, it's how the photographer brings to the process 
what  they know. Some of this is purely technical in nature, but it's the  
apprenticeship to an ideal that matters in the end. That's one of the reasons  
why the idea of an annual conference/gathering is so exciting. It would give  
folks an opportunity to see actual prints and share information  firsthand.

Happy Thanksgiving!

In that vein, I just want to say THANKS to all of you for clearing up a lot  
of the mysterious for this old fixer mixer about the intricacies of the 
digital  print process. The more things change, the more they stay the same.
At the Print-off, I felt like I was really out of my league.... didn't know  
what you guys were talking about half the time, and still trying to make sense 
 of this dot process. But after Tyler gave me his answer and the other heavy  
hitters weighed in and elaborated, I now know what it is I'm looking at and  
looking for in my own printing. 
I will be at the next Print-Off, God willing, wherever it's held. I'm off  to 
France again this evening, and I wish you all a happy holiday.
