Fine
art black and white landscape and abstract
photography printed in silver gelatin by exhibiting photographic artist,
Scott Edwards. Photographs were shot on the Oregon
Coast, in the Pacific Northwest, the American West, the
industrial Midwest, rural
Wisconsin, and along his 2000 mile walk from Hilbert Wisconsin
through the Great Plains and Desert Southwest to the Grand Canyon in Arizona.
Scott works exclusively in black and white gelatin silver printed from film
negatives shot with large and medium format cameras, and is a participating
artist of Main Street Art Works co-op in Hilbert,
Wisconsin. These fine art photographs are exhibited nationwide in art galleries and museums, and in virtual galleries
worldwide.
Scott Edwards is also the author of “A Long Walk to the Grand Canyon” which is the true story of his journey on
foot from Wisconsin to the Grand Canyon in Arizona. 2046 miles in 122 days
alone in the torturous summer heat; all in the name of capturing fine art
photographs. The book contains random observations of his walk in addition to
his journal entries and a sampling of photographs. Silver
Gelatin photography has been shown to be archival and many examples of black
and white photography printed over 100 years ago still look fresh. Scott
Edwards takes great pride in hands-on craftsmanship which in wet darkroom
processing results in photographs that present themselves slightly different
with each individual printing, even those from the same negative. Viewing the
world with a different palette helps us appreciate beauty in ways we might
otherwise take for granted. Many find black and white photography to be
introspective and thought provoking. Spend some quality time with black and
white photography at any fine art gallery and see for yourself.
