Kennebunkport, platinum palladium print
Parson's beach , Platinum Palladium print
At its most basic, photography is simply seeing and showing. However, the photographic artist carefully searches out, selects and thoughtfully constructs a photograph as a personal interpretive piece. All my work is from 8"x10" and 8"x20" original in-camera negatives, contact printed on hand-coated fine art paper using the platinum/palladium printing method. The slow and contemplative nature of working with large and ultra-large format view cameras, together with the unique qualities of the platinum/palladium contact printing process, best communicates my personal vision. The beauty and significance of an image often rests in the finest details and subtleties. The large format film allows the capture of the maximum details and tones of what I choose to interpret.
