Thank you for your kind words.? "High Key" does enlarge nicely, although I 
doubt it would go the 14.5 X 18.5 I've gone with other images which were 
capture from a tripod mounted e-1.? I like to title my images and these titles 
often become an important part of the whole.?? This was such a title/image.

The second images is a contact print of the original negative and is from a 6X9 
format on 120 film.? It was printed on vellum paper and does, because of the 
platinum/palladium emulsion and the translucent vellum paper, have a wonder 
three dimensional look.? The print, when not mounted on a nice white mat board, 
does not have the same magic.? This could have been done with a digital 
negative, which I intend to attempt in the future.? It also has me breaking out 
the 4X5 gear.? This process can be done without?a darkroom (although you will 
want a room without florescent or sun light)?and without much more equipment 
than a few trays and and a contact printing frame.)? This was my first attempt 
at this process and imagine it will be one I'll use in the future.?

The "High Key" is grown-worthily amusing in title, but also great in 
itself. It's a similar type of image I'd take in subject and composition 
(if not in quality :-) ). I know it's only a small image, but I suspect 
my mind is extrapolating its "blown-up" qualities correctly. <g>

With the other one, it's harder to extrapolate, but it certainly has 
this cat's curiosity aroused. I *really* would like to see it in print 
form (the with 'High Key' but moreso here), as it gives the impression 
of being quite contemplative and "dreamy".

Okay, so you don't need my opinions - the acknowledgements of quality 
have already come in their placings. I just needed to spend at least two 
paragraphs to say "Nice" and "Congratulations". ;-)

Cheers,
Marc
