I was once asked “how did you get this shot” and my answer was “at the cost of a nervous breakdown”. This was true, a year of transition, having to admit failure in my quest for a PhD, aspirations to be a national geographic photographer, a revolution in Iran, palpitations that got me an ambulance at the Rome airport. That is all in this perfect picture.

Some notes on paper;
“coated card stock” is fairly thick conventional cellulose paper that has been coated to better display photographs printed by inkjet printers. The surfaces that I use are all matte, and are easy to write on, inside and outside of the note card. I typically choose a weight that is approximately 200 gsm, sometimes a bit lighter, sometimes a bit heavier, depending on what is available. I favor Finestra Premium at 230 gsm, a bright white, slightly cool colors.
“rag paper” is acid free archival rag paper. Your note cards will last longer than you or I will. :-)). I use the same pigment inks and I favor weights between 200 gsm and 300 gsm. My favorite is Hahnemuehle Photo Rag 308. The surface has a smooth finish, but is soft to the touch of a ball point pen.
