Image of the Week: UVM Mallory, Morgan Horse Farm, Weybridge, Vermont, Palladium PrintDue to newly discovered time constraints over the last nine months, I haven't produced much in the way of new work. Between sharing childcare duties with my wife and a heavy load of commercial assignments this spring, I've been swamped. So, instead of producing new personal work, I've been at work in the darkroom reimagining existing work as new pieces. One of these projects includes printing the Vermont Morgan Horse black-and-white images as a Palladium portfolio. I've covered Palladium printmaking in a previous post, and I feel Palladium's warm glow works beautifully with the Morgan Horse work. This week's image is the first in a long line of prints to come, and one of my favorites from that set. Have questions or comments? Send me an email. Technical DataI photographed UVM Mallory, Morgan Horse Farm, Weybridge, Vermont, Palladium Print with a Hasselblad 500CM and a Zeiss 80mm ƒ/2.8 T* lens on Kodak TMax 400 film (TMY-2). The exposure was 1/60 sec at ƒ/11. I scanned the negative, corrected dust, scratches, and tone in Photoshop, and output the image as a digital negative onto Pictorico OHP transparency material. I then contact printed the negative in Palladium onto double-coated Arches Platine watercolor paper. ◊ ◊ ◊
