I while ago my friend and esteem colleague Darryl Graham asked people to do a portrait of him. I don't know why. Maybe because he was selfconscious of that thing where when you look in the mirror the person you see looks different from the one you see in photographs and he wanted to be sure of the extent of the contrast. Who knows? At any rate, I worked exceptionally hard on the portrait and have just recently had it scanned. Unfortunately, the scan blew out a lot of the subtle grays into pure white which is the story for all the scans I had done at the store. I shouldn't have expected perfection though; all they're used to scanning are blueprints.
