Sonatas II-10 (presto)

This turn in the path - reflecting the light
Is peaceful and quiet - both dark and bright
Focused and left for your own mind to see
Many mysteries, only the gifted can perceive

This photo was taken in September of 2018 with a Minolta X-700 35 mm SLR equipped with a 50 mm f/1.7 Minolta MD lens on Ilford FP4+ film. The negative was enlarged optically with a Beseler 23CIIXL enlarger and a 50 mm f/2.8 Schneider Componon-S lens on Ilford Multigrade FB Classic Double Weight Fiber Base silver gelatin photo paper. Processing was done archivally using Kodak chemistry, with a final toning with Kodak Rapid Selenium Toner, treated with hypo clearing agent, and washed in an archival washer.

All aspects of this print were handled in an authentic, pre-digital manner. Archival processing will ensure the maximum life span for this print.

This print (1/25) on 8” x 10” paper is available for purchase, mounted on 11” x 14” archival board. Please contact me if interested. Thank You.
