Re: [artshow_photo] What paper are you using for black and white images

Oscar,
I am printing more black and white and less color. If I have printing done at a lab, I use Epson Exhibition Fiber, nice look, slight sheen, good contrast, heavy feel. Not sure if iprintfromhome uses it tho. I had some prints done there a few years ago and did not like the paper they were using, very thin, maybe they have more choices now. My lab will always make me some sample prints on their various papers so I can choose what works best. It is probably not an option for you because it is in Bath, PA, but I use Ray Smicker at Silver Images, he is a master printer and super nice guy.
If I print at home, I use Canson Baryta, again with great results.
Good luck.
Linda Mann
