Strolling through the zoo talking
Passing those who would turn if they saw
Friends caring not who might be watching
Secure in their world of fellowship and trust
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.
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.
