Sonatas III-3 Gordon The Golfball (Arrival-The Tour)

He looked up at me and asked, "Where's your hospitality?
It's hellishly cold and snowing out!!! Turn the heat up for me!!!
The warmest place in here is where I need to be!"
I set him on the heater, and I turned it up fast.

It was under the window, he said, "Man! I'm in a draft!
I should have just hitched a ride in your sack!"
I said, "You mean my golf bag?", then prepared for his attack -
"I rolled all the way here bare-foot and bare-assed!"

This photo was taken in March of 1982 with a Ricoh Singlex TLS 35 mm SLR equipped with a 55 mm f/1.7 Prinz Auto Rexatar lens on Kodak Tri-X Pan 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.
