FINE ART PHOTOGRAPH OF THE WEEK: CENTRAL PARK LAKE, NY

©2005 Kelly Fitzgerald.  Central Park Lake, NY
Silver Gelatin Archival Fiber Base Print
11" H x 14" W
Limited Edition of 25
Includes 4 inch, 4 ply acid-free matting
Price: $900 USD





Here is another Central Park image I recently came across while working on The Archive Project.  The tall buildings of Manhattan appear in the background; a towering, urban mountain range.  This piece is now part of the "New York" series.

I had always dreamed of visiting New York City and walking through Central Park.  In 2005, I was given that opportunity.  My project, "A New Discovery" won The Golden Light Award - Honorable Mention and I attended the gala event, which was held at a gallery in Chelsea.


Professional framing is available for an additional charge.

This work was created by using an old manual SLR film camera and Kodak Professional High-Speed HIE Black-and-White Infrared Negative Film.  Sadly, the film is no longer being manufactured.  The traditional negative is scanned on a drum scanner to create a 300 megabyte digital file which serves as a vehicle for the tonal balancing, lighting, and darkening that was formerly done in the darkroom.  Once the aesthetic interpretation is realized in the computer and matched with the artist proof print created in the traditional "wet" darkroom, the image is then printed on fully archival silver gelatin fiber base paper.
