Skater & Bather

3218-1 scanDefinitely a period piece for those who remember the 1980s! Roller skating and bathing at Fullerton Beach in Chicago, Illinois. The photo was taken in July of 1982 with a Ricoh Singlex TLS 35 mm SLR equipped with a 135 mm f/3.5 Pentax Super Takumar lens and a Litematic 2X teleconverter 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.
