Bah humbug. The picture isn;t finished until I say it is, and if I
control the process from start to finish, there's no reason that one
part of the process has to be any more "pure" than any other part of
the process. Ultimately, the piece of art will stand on how the print
looks, and not whether the highlights and shadows came from the
camera or the darkroom.
