Since not too many people were as eager to show off their print processing (http://www.largeformatphotography.info/forum/showthread.php?112188-Show-your-print-processing-room) / matting etc. space as everyone was to show off their darkroom, I thought I could ask a more specific question to get some ideas for a project: an area for print proofing. I have a large blank white wall, that I want to use for print proofing. Lets say the area is about 8 ft wide by 10 ft tall. There's a high large diffused south-facing window on the right. What sort of lighting would you recommend and at what height/distance from the wall? I am going with tracklights but can also do fluorescents too. Ay tips or photos of your set up would be great. The spotting will be done on a bench to the side, right under the window

Always eager to help when a thread is properly identified and I have adequate experiential non-opinion. I would know "print proofing" as DR oriented work. Print presentation and finishing does happen in a separate space (http://www.largeformatphotography.info/forum/showthread.php?112188-Show-your-print-processing-room).
