“Photography is an obsessive passion. So much effort to get everything right, all the technical and artistic decisions: layers of questions about composition, camera angle, format, film choice, lens and shutter settings, optics, processing, printing. And even though I have spent decades deepening and refining my knowledge about these issues, they are by far the easier things to handle in the creative process. These are the variables more or less in my control. “The vast territory that is not in my control presents the greater and more exhilarating challenge: changing light, shadow patterns, a person's expression, the shape of a mountain, the time of year. In short, all the wonderful wide world. As a photographer working in natural environments, outside of the studio, I have no control over what I am looking at, but I try to see it as clearly and profoundly as possible, and to communicate, in my images, something about what I am seeing and why I want to look at it, and in turn something about myself. It is an interactive process in which I am something of a catalyst, and which I have come to call, in my personal lexicon, ‘the influence of light.’ “My images are photographs, and the prints are called archival pigment prints. They are matted on 8 ply archival mat board and backed by archival foam core, and all are produced in limited editions of ten plus one artist’s proof. As to media, the paper is Breathing Color Elegance 300gsm 100% cotton fine art paper, and the inks are museum grade Epson UltraChrome K3. The editions are produced by Bob Korn Imaging, one of the nation’s most acclaimed fine art digital print shops. By limiting my editions strictly to ten, I enhance the current and future value of my work, both for the casual buyer and the serious collector.” - Don Krohn Don Krohn's archival pigment prints are: Framing for either is an additional $140 Also available: "In the South of France," a collection of Don's photographs, published by David R.
