""51st to 1st"

This was made from a photograph taken in New York.  Inge then used Photoshop to manipulate the image and produce 3 transparencies.

  1. The first was exposed for 1min on to WS 40 plate and given 2mins washout.
  2. the second was exposed, also on to WS 40 plate, for just 45 secs with 2mins washout.
  3. The last plate was exposed on to WF95 plastic film for 4mins (conditions having become overcast) and washed out for 1-2mins.

The three plates were then inked separately with different colours of intaglio oil-based ink, with one plate also rolled lightly with relief ink.  So the image is a four colour print.
