Hi Vic,
Personally I think that untoned works better on these type of images, even cooltone. The two social documentary shots you have posted are quite gritty and punchy and IMHO carry this effect better when printed untoned.
Others will, no doubt disagree and you will clearly have to weigh up the pros and cons.
Don't know if this is of any help.
Regards
John
This is very helpful and seems to be in line with other opinions.
I find apug is indespensible for getting this kind of eye opening, muddle clearing feedback and I really appreciate it.
