Do I recall? Darin, as if yesterday. I always sat on one of his barstools, being young and needing elevation. Edward had a little tripod easel that he would place the prints on under the skylight. However, there was also additional illumination from the glass doors that faced the ocean, and depending on the time of year provided sunlight or light from the bright coastal overcast --- the type you are familiar with!
I'm not sure he changed his mind about viewing conditions --- he was only human, not a machine, and prints from the same negative sometimes varied in contrast and brightness.
