Boats
motoring in out of the fog in Burnham Harbor in Chicago, Ill. Burnham Harbor is between the shore of
Lake Michigan and Northerly Island, then the site of Meigs Field, a small
business airport. The photo was taken in July of
1982 with a Ricoh Singlex TLS 35 mm SLR equipped with a 55 mm f/1.7
Prinz Auto Rexatar lens on Kodak Panatomic-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.
