Exhibitions: Anza-Borrego Desert: Selected Images

From October 15th through December 14th, I'll be showing a small selection of images from my Anza-Borrego portfolio at Carol's Hungry Mind Cafe in Middlebury, Vermont. The nine images on display feature examples of my large format film and digital work from California's largest state park.

A forgotten desert, Anza-Borrego's history is etched across its landscape from the petroglyphs and morteros of aboriginal man, to the wagon trails of early European settlers, to the offroad vehicles and vacation homes of the modern day. The hand of man is ever present in this wild landscape, and the deteriorating ruins of man's efforts to live in a harsh environment are a vivid reminder of the marginal existence possible here.

All of the images were printed using an Epson 3800 and Epson's Ultrachrome K3 archival pigment inkset for the ultimate in digital color print quality and longevity. Each image was mounted and matted using only acid-free materials and then framed using Nielsen-Bainbridge black aluminum frame moulding. A price list of the show images is below.

Several of the images were captured using a 4x5 field camera on black-and-white film. These images are also available as hand-crafted gelatin silver prints created in the wet darkroom. Printed on glossy, cotton fiber-based paper and archivally washed, these images represent the ultimate is image fidelity and longevity. Gelatin silver prints are made to order, so please allow a little extra time for these prints to be delivered.
