Sonatas VII-7 (Dolce Capriccioso)

"Twas the last noon dance of Solstice of this summer's year!",
A faerie chattered, scolding, "We're running out of time, you hear?
There are many things, my dear that you will want to see!"
The faerie and her woodland band compelled and pull-ed me
Along an unknown trail until we came upon
Some fallen faerie trees...

13631-1 scanThe photo was taken in June of 2019 with a Minolta X-570 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 or unmounted. Please contact me if interested. Thank You.
