I think it depends on the content how well it works of course, to a greater extent than with various paper stocks. It's a well established topic that people ought to print more (on whatever). For this one its typical of George's perceptive eye to note the way the water drops have rendered here. I can follow his thinking there. Somehow there needs to be a new group gathering with prints in hand. Maybe I need to get back into a print exchange if any are still extant. I tend to carry maybe a thousand images on my iPad but holding a good print on quality stock in your hands is a different experience.
