I bought Afga Portriga Rapid in Grades 1-3. I've been using it for the last week and found out why my photo instructor said it was "warm" paper. Every print is sepia (brown) toned!! It'll take a while to get used to. I guess landscapes and the like would look good but it just doesn't "work" for the portraitures I'm currently doing. According to my instructor, the brown tone is a characteristic of the paper and I didn't screw it up. Has anybody else used this paper? What do you think of it? Any subjects it can enhance? Just a side note, I think I'm going to try some Galerie paper as everyone suggested! John Barrett AT&T Information Systems Lincroft, NJ
