This image was made in Manhattan on the Upper East Side in 1973 when I was a graduate student visiting a grilfriend. At that time, I was one of the only fine art potographers worldwide working in color. Color was not deemed investment quality because it faded. I persisted though because I felt color was important, and besides, I would have the medium practically to myself. It was shot with a Rolleiflex TLR camera and Ektacolor Professional film that I processed. As a last step, I put them through a formaldehyde bath, which I attribute to preserving these images for 50 years so far. This is the best image I could ever make from this negative. It was scanned and edited in Photoshop and printed digitally with an Epson professional printer on Epson 22"X17" Epson Exhibition Fiber paper. There is a border of 1" on the right and left, and a border of 3.5" on the top and bottom. It is titled and numbered on the lower left, and signed and dated on the lower right, in archival pen. The print run is limited to 10, but this is print #1 made on a digital printer. The other prints, C type, have all long since faded and have been disposed of. There probably never will be 10 of this run. It is dated with the year of creation on the front, and year of printing on the back. I have also imprinted my right thumb print to guarantee authenticity, initialed and dated it. it is truly a classic and vintage image from 50 years ago.

BLACK FRIDAY SALE ON MY WEBSITE https://russmartinandmarciamartin.com Mr. Martin is a citizen of the USA, having been born in upstate New York State and spending his youth in the small rural village of Clinton. Because of this exposure, and frequent trips to their summering spot in the Adirondack Mountains, nature became a part of him. Naturally, it would become expressed though his art, which was inspired by his father, a part time professional photographer and amateur watercolor painter. When he was young, professional cameras were ever present, as well as a fully equipped darkroom. There was a mystique about photography, and "that place", that he wanted to know, so he convinced his father to teach him. Thus began a life long career as a fine art photographer. Later, he went on to study fine art photography at college, and earn an MFA in photography so as to be able to teach photography on the college level, have time to produce his work, and earn a living from what he loved. He was a fine art photography teacher for over thirty years, and is now retired, having done so in 2008, to concentrate full time on his work. Over the years, Mr. Martin has won numerous awards and feature articles have been published about him in national and international publications. Recently, his pictures have been featured in the UK, Australia, and the USA. His flora images of hosta plants have won first place awards in the Prix de la Photographie, Paris, the International Photography Awards (The Lucies), and the International Garden Photographer of the Year.
