A visit to the M. C. Escher web site (http://www.mcescher.com/) should get your vision back on track.

Use Ilford Delta 400 for shooting fine deep shadows and dork blacks. Works for me!
I love my 50mm lens best of all!

Dork blacks are dorky blacks. One guy in another forum used to write: "the Panasonic MX8 is for shooting for fine deep shadows and dark blacks," about 200 times, probably even more. However, one time he spelled "dark" incorrectly: "dorks." So the line went: "for shooting fine deep shadows and dork blacks." Anyway, I picked up on it and so did others, and now this line has become well-known in describing high contrast shadows and dark blacks. We all know that blacks are dark, whites are bright, and grays are somewhere in-between. Anyways, here's that fella's website:

I checked out the site: cool.
Did you ever see the episode of the Simpsons where the family was appartment hunting (after losing the house) and one of the places they looked at was Escher's Relativity...genius!

No, I didn't see that one. Oh, well. I'm depressed now.
