I’ve been wanting to photograph this building forever. Time and opportunity crossed paths yesterday morning. The picture was made with a 4x5 camera, 150mm lens, and Ilford HP Plus film.
Morning light. It was unseasonably warm one winter morning, so I took the 4x5 to the town beach, approximately two miles away from where I live.
A little late in posting this. This picture was digitally made back in June (2020). The picture popping out of the toaster is a photocopy of print. That photograph was made with my 4x5 and can be found in the People and Places menu group, and in my book, People and Places I Know (see Store). In this picture, Jill is holding a broadsheet newspaper I published with a picture of snake on the cover. The snake photo was made with a medium format camera. The toaster is on display in my studio.
