I will do that, Morgan. I figured something big and colour and digital was the way to go for my first post. Good for what ails you.

Black & white in the age of digital seems more like an easy way to hide your failures, than the film era demonstration of talent for capturing light & shadow.

Some of Jonathan & Robyn & Jackson's pictures in that original post were shot on black & white film.
Digital photographers don?t have the option?

I think, however, these large servings you find in Chinatown likely are Mantis as they're much bigger than the ones we get at the local cafes. Roe, I have no idea about.
