Black & White Print Sales
Black & white prints are available for sale as limited edition archivally processed selenium toned silver gelatine prints from the original black & white negative. Images will not be cropped. The size limits are based on what I believe is the maximum size that negatives will enlarge to consistent with good print quality. In the case of 35mm Infra Red there is no limit as the image is already grainy and not particularly sharp.
Digital prints are not available for my own images, but are sometimes used for reprinting portrait commissions where the client requests this.
Print Editions
Limiting the size of a print edition traditionally came from the use of metal plates for etching, where the etched plate was compressed and the lines which held the ink crushed slightly with each impression. This tradition has been adopted within photography to give a guarantee to purchasers that prints will not appear everywhere. For on-line sales please contact me in the short term, a new gallery website is being set up for print sales in the near future.
With my move to a Lot2 gallery I am reducing my print edition sizes. Once an edition size is declared it is normally not acceptable to alter this limit, but in the case of edition number reduction I am sure no one will complain. Also, I have so many unprinted negatives to print that I do not want to spend a lot of time printing old work.
From now Landscape, Forest Protest and Artist Portrait images are now limited to a total of eight prints of any image in any print size
Snapshots and Signs and Situations portfolios are now limited to a total of six.
These editions are excluding digital files for magazine, video or book reproduction.

I am mindfully brutal with cases of copyright breach.
