Sonatas III-21 Gordon The Golfball (The Consequences)

"Get me off of this water trap! Do you want me to drown?”
Gordon’s drunken behavior gave me a frown.
Gordon climbed on my lamp shouting “Hey! Look at me!
In a Lampshade Hat! I’m Lit! Don’t you see!”

3018-1 scanThis 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.
