Miniature Speed Graphic circa 1946

by Laura Campbell in Laura Campbell Fine Art

A friend found this Miniature Speed Graphic at a yard sale for $10, and sold it to me for $10. The format is 2×3 but it has a Graflex 120 film back. It’s in really great shape and I’m looking forward to shooting with it on my next project.

Gallery LouLou

by Laura Campbell in Laura Campbell Fine Art

New tenants are moving into this building on the plaza in Ranchos de Taos and since I like the sign so much, I had to photograph it before it’s replaced with another sign.

Flower Power Exhibit, Taos News Clipping

by Laura Campbell in Laura Campbell Fine Art

Today’s Tempo Magazine - Taos News, ran a blurb on an upcoming show I’m in at Two Graces Gallery in St. Francis Plaza, Ranchos de Taos. I’ll have several pinhole photographs of flowers in the exhibit along with two gravure prints. The paper selected one of my pinhole photographs, and a gravure print for the blurb.

Proof print - orchid

by Laura Campbell in Laura Campbell Fine Art

Here we are with a proof. This one is tricky to wipe. I came in and “dodged” some of the areas on the petals and the branch with a little plate oil.  Prints from this plate are going to take days and days to dry… ;)

and here’s the plate, inked and wiped…
