Photograph: Main Entrance
This black and white photograph was made with the Wirgin Auta. I used Kodak Tri-X 120 roll film and a tripod. The shutter speed was 1/50 second for both exposures and the aperture was set to f/11 for one and f/8 for the other, as a little time elapsed between exposures. Two exposures were used and the film was allowed to slightly overlap. A single photograph was made and was part of a project that was a response to the 1975 exhibition, "New Topographics: Photographs of a Man-Altered Landscape."
