I did the scanning- as usual 4000 dpi on the Polaroid Sprint Scan, and then
did all the Photoshop work - contrast adjustment, burning, dodging, etc.
I've checked and the printing was done with something called a Lamda Durst,
which, it appears, is a lightjet by a different name - digital scan used to
produce a silver print......very very nice. I have no idea what the process
cost, although from what my folks told me it was, for the size of the
prints, surprisingly inexpensive.

So the exhibit will consist of - at last count - 30-40 of these prints, with
images sizes ranging from 9x12 to about whatever x 26, plus a continuous dvd
slide show of most of the 70-90 images on a large plasma screen.
