Too bad, 'Chelle. It's their contest, so they can set the rules. I guess there is nothing wrong with the notion of limiting to traditional media. But in the long run they are really choking off their business. Without computer "enhancements" I would just be making occasional snapshots, and taking them to Jiffy-Mart, rather than taking my film to a pro lab, and buying prints from professional large format printers. I do have friends though that accuse me of not making photographs anymore because I spend so much time with the computer. I've stoped arguing with them. (Since we've been careful not to mention your lab by name) maybe someone should discretely pass them the URL to this thread... It would be interesting seeing some "before" and "after" enhancement examples here. Using either computer or wet darkroom. ...Actually, I've still been accused of just making snapshots... At least I've not been posting ducks... ;-)
