Standing Stone Creek #3 – Archival Color Print from 4×5 Transparency

Price range: $160.00 through $875.00

“Standing Stone Creek #3” is offered as a custom fine art color photographic print, signed and numbered with a certificate of authenticity. This image was captured before the Ancient Old Growth Eastern Hemlocks in Central PA began suffering the devastating effects of the Hemlock woolly adelgid.

I captured this subject in Kodak E100SW transparency film with an Ebony 4×5 camera and 150mm Rodenstock Sironar S lens in Alan Seeger Natural Area in Rothrock State Forest, Pennsylvania.

This image was captured during a spring visit to this true virgin old growth forest after a brief early morning thunderstorm. The stream was flowing with crystal clear water and the forest was aglow in soft lighting just before the sky cleared. This image took at least an hour to capture, awaiting a brief calm period so that everything would remain still during the 6 second exposure. Luckily there was an extended period of calm which allowed me to successfully capture this intimate landscape in Color as well as with Black and White film immediately after. The waiting is never a chore in a magical place like this.

On that spring day in 1996 I was accompanied by the late environmentalist and philanthropist, Don Hamer. He patiently awaited my setting up the camera & tripod, loading the film and focusing until the perfectly still moment for the shutter release revealed itself. We took in the stunning beauty of Standing Stone Creek and the ancient forest and discussed the area’s history, the strong local dedication to the clear watershed and the majesty of the untouched forest. Don was a valuable inspiration in my continuing interest, dedication and photography of Eastern Old Growth Forests and that long ago day is etched into memory.

Description

“Standing Stone Creek #3” is offered as a limited edition, color fine art photographic print. I captured this subject in Alan Seeger Natural Area in Rothrock State Forest, Pennsylvania on Kodak 4×5 E100SW transparency film with an Ebony 4×5 view camera and 150mm APO Rodenstock Sironar S APO lens.

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 Color. There is also a black and white version of this image taken with TMax B&W sheet film available in the Black and White Intimate Landscapes collection.

    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.
