Awagami's Washi Inkjet Paper

It's already the 3rd of January! ; )  I have been out collecting supplies.  Purchased a few small frames to have on hand at the 1 Cent Sale at Aaron Bros.  That sale continues to February 4th if you're interested.  Today I picked up framed France images from the library - I almost forgot they were even there!  And I was able to purchase the Epson ink locally, but will have to order the light magenta from Freestyle online as that was the one color Pardee's didn't have today!!  I did manage to mix up some new developer so I'm ready for the darkroom.  I'm thinking tomorrow I can get in there - finally!

I bought my husband an Italian cookbook - so he's been doing a lot of cooking lately.  He's doing very well too I might add, but it could pack a few pounds on us, so that worries me.  But the good thing is that if I am in the darkroom - I don't have to come out as soon to cook dinner cuz he's doing it! ; )  I like it!

Getting back to Freestyle Photographic Supplies, their latest catalog has some very interesting papers for inkjet printers!  Washi Inkjet Paper made by Awagami based in Japan.  They are touting it as a "revolutionary WASHI (Japanese paper)" collection for photographers.  That got my attention.  It makes me start thinking about what I could print:  ethereal images come to mind first and foremost.  Do I have any??  That's the next question. ; )

The other black and white digital image that I am taking to the High Hand Gallery for January's re-hang is one I took at Yosemite in 2011.
