Re: Fw: Wet vs. Dry

Bravo Guillermo,

The reply from you is just what I was looking for; honesty!

Giclee does come across better than hearing the word "inkjet". I will say
and write the word Giclee from now on, and see what type responce I get
from my friend's facial expressions.

 I am very pleased at the enthusiasm that you have shown for art, science
and of course pinhole over the years. I might have dropped out from the
regular scene due to my health, but I still read what's going on, and you
seem to be there just about all the time. I have thought many times of
you when I couldn't sleep at night. I would have a thought about light,
and say to myself; "I wonder what Guillero would say?". One thought I had
the other night was, "I wonder if anyone has ever placed a prism just
behind the pinhole and what the result would look like?". When you are
really in bad health your mind races with thought, and you find that the
brain seems to be the dominant part of yourself and not the body. I try
my best to get better, but it's a slow road. But if I have my way I will
come out a winner, I've been doing it for 30 years now!

Seasons Greetings and Happy Holidays to you and all the world!

"Keep on Pinholin'",
