These images are small, printed with large margins on a sheet of eight by ten. They measure about 2x3 inches at the image border. In those days I was shooting on a large roll film camera. Back then, it was a step up for sharpness and image quality over 35 millimeter film.

This series explores the human form that I made one late night, with a single light. I was interested in throwing deep shadows across her body, to show the landscape formed by bone and muscle and skin.

There are five images, just one vintage print each to make the series.

Vintage prints are made within a year of the photographs create date. My usual practice is to print within a few days or weeks of exposure. What you see is a scan of the actual print that is for sale. Price does not include shipping or taxes.

Please note that vintage prints are imperfect. They’re old, after all. If you’re worried about it, bring it up. I’ll do my best to answer your questions.

Vintage - When I print the photograph within a year of the original exposure, that becomes a Vintage Print.
Archival Pigment - When I print in my studio using computer technology with pigmented inks on acid and lignin free paper, I call that an Archival Pigment Print.
Silver - When I print in my darkroom on gelatin silver paper, that is a Silver Print. These prints are double weight on a cotton fiber base.
