The
SunTrust Bank location on Mangum Street in downtown Durham, North
Carolina. I liked the way the lighter building peaked out from the darker ones in this mid-telephoto shot.
The photo was taken in December of 2015 with a Minolta X-570 35 mm SLR equipped with a 135 mm f/2.8 Minolta MD lens
on Ilford FP4+ 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.
