FISHEATING CREEK – ELLEN’S MEMORIAL TREE © 2002
Palmdale, FL
Photographic Story
Fisheating Creek located on the west side of Lake Okeechobee, and the only remaining river that flows into Lake Okeechobee. This is where I first experienced the primeval beauty of Florida. I’m from California and was stunned by the beauty and mysterious feeling of the environment. It was at that moment I fell in love with Florida.
Analog – Archival Silver Gelatin Photograph
Clyde’s silver gelatin black and white images are created using an 8” x 10”, 11” x 14”, or 12” x 20” view camera. Clyde prints his images in his own darkroom on fiber-base paper in a limited edition. The photographs are selenium toned, then mounted and matted to current archival standards. His images come in sizes from 8” x 10” inches to 5’x 8’ feet. His love of art and nature is seen in the exceptional detail and more subtle textures of his photography. Each photograph is individually hand printed in the darkroom and will vary based on factors such as artist preference, chemistry and temperature. The image displayed on the website is a digital scan of the original negative and should be considered a representation of the printed version of the art.
