Archival Ultrachrome Digital Prints |
|
|
|
Benefits |
|
 |
|
All digital prints from this gallery are using top grade Matte and Glossy paper and produced by using Ultrachrome inks for maximum permanence. Ultrachrome is the new generation pigment-based ink able to produce photographic prints of wide color gamut and great fade-resistance. In fact, Ultrachrome prints are more permanent than conventional color photographic prints. In tests conducted by Wihelm Imaging Research, an independent company conducting research on the stability and preservation of photographs and motion pictures, this combination has been shown to produce very long lasting and fade-resistant prints.
Compared to traditional darkroom prints, digital prints offer higher image quality because there is far more control of the tonal adjustments at the artist's disposal. Dust spots and defects can also be completely removed. For each image, I make painstakingly detailed tonal adjustments and defects removal. I do not use any "automatic" adjustment function from the software.
All prints are made from the original 16bit-per-channel 8-time-sampling scans using Nikons ColscanV ED; The file size of the scan is over 170MB, or over 28 mega-pixels in digital terms. With this resolution and color depth, every detail from the original film is accurately transferred into digital form. Or the prints are made from digital files taken with the canon 40D or 20D. |

The final print might look little different than the image you see on the screen. It is very natural and is due to the fact that printer and display screen operate in different color model and have different color gamut. It is further complicated by the dependency on how well the device is color calibrated and profiled. |
