“Life Blood at Standing Stone Creek #4” is offered as a custom fine art black and white photographic print, signed and numbered with a certificate of authenticity. This image was taken in Alan Seeger Natural Area, Rothrock State Forest, Pennsylvania.

I captured this subject in Kodak TMax 100 sheet film with an Ebony 4×5 camera and 150mm Rodenstock Sironar S lens. This image was captured before the Ancient Old Growth Eastern Hemlocks in Central PA were decimated.

This image was captured on a visit to this true virgin old growth forest after an brief early morning soaking rain. The stream was flowing with crystal clear water and the forest was aglow in soft lighting just before the sky cleared. This image, along with a black and white, took at least a half hour to capture awaiting perfect calm so that everything aside from the stream remained still during the 6 second exposure. There was finally an extended period of calm which allowed me a successful capture this intimate landscape in black and white and in color with transparency film. The waiting is never a chore in a magical place like this.

This limited Edition Print will be Signed and Numbered. Pricing includes the print only with a white border and includes free shipping unless otherwise noted. This Print Requires Framing (see detailed info below).

Description

“Life Blood at Standing Stone Creek #4” is offered as a limited edition, fine art black and white photographic landscape print. I captured this subject on Kodak TMax 100 film with an Ebony 4×5 camera and 150mm Rodenstock Sironar S lens in Alan Seeger Natural Area, Rothrock State Forest, PA.

This image was captured before the Ancient Old Growth Eastern Hemlocks in Central PA were decimated. There is also a color version of this image that was taken immediately prior. The drum scan of the 4×5 transparency assures print sizes to 52 x 65 (and larger) are critically sharp at extremely close viewing distances. All images are as I saw them and imaged with only color, brightness, shadow and contrast & local light and shadow adjustments, just as I did in the darkroom. 

This is a museum quality fine art print in black and white.

    Included in Your Print Purchase:

  • Pricing includes the print only, shipped flat to 16 x 20 or rolled in a tube mailer for larger sizes.
  • Framing, Presentation and Preservation:

  • All prints will require a frame, glass and backing material that matches print size. (Frames usually come 1/8” oversized to accommodate the glass, print and backing, please verify.)
  • Borderless Framing (meaning no cut matboard): All prints include a white border containing the number and signature.
  • Again, the white borders of the print assure that a cut mat board is not required for framing an Archival Print.
  • Acid Free white foamcore is a good choice for backing in .25” thickness. An Acid Free matboard is optional between the backer board and the print.
  • Glass Options (“the Glazing”): Classic AR Glass, Museum Glass or other UV glass or a UV Acrylic as the “Glazing” (again meaning Glass) is highly recommended for UV protection and to protect the print. Classic AR Glass and Museum Glass are Anti-Reflective which greatly enhances viewing the print.
  • No spray or coating is required or recommended on any of our prints, please refrain from any such treatment.
  • Other Framing Options: We can help with the framing in several molding styles and glazing options or steer you in the right direction for the perfect framing materials that assure archival print endurance.
