First, thanks for the kind words.  I tend to agree she's an ideal subject.

Printed as an 8x10, I'm getting digitally captured prints that look that
good, too.  I haven't been printing any big ones yet...will be doing that,
soon.

Where are the negatives?  I'm working on that, too.  Amazon is offering a
web service to store data.  In up to 5 gig chunks.  For 15c per
gigabyte-month.  And have it replicated on a handful of servers around the
globe.  I'm going to start playing around with this.  Where will my
negatives be?  Indochina, as far as I know or care.  :)  I sure don't trust
the ones and zeros to last with just one copy.
