I doubt that an Introduction is needed, Mr. Debold, glad to have you on the
list.  And I'm old enough to really appreciate your comment about old world
craftsmanship!  I have a Sinar F with extension kit, bag bellows, etc. etc.
that I'd gladly swap for some good old world craftsmanship! -- Nothing
wrong with the Sinars, but they're COLD!

Would you care to talk about your digital processing tools?  I'm not much
for heavy image manipulation, but the retouching (I do NOT, for the most
part, have DUST SPOTS!) interests me.  I think I'm pretty well set up for
an amateur, but would like to hear it from a real pro!  Thanks.  Vic
