Jean Miele

I came across Jean Miele in "Black and White" magazine. He does all his darkroom work digitally which, I am sure, will make many if not most black-and-white photographers belittle his work. I've said it before, it's not at all clear to me why one shouldn't do on the computer what is usually done in the darkroom. Selling prints might still be a different issue - computer-generated prints are potentially less interesting than hand-printed ones. On the other side, it is hard to see why somebody like Jean Miele wouldn't limit the editions of his prints to milk the market in the same fashion hand-printers do. I'm convinced once more people sell digital prints the difference in price between hand-printed photos and computer-printed ones will disappear.
