Canyon de Chelly Triptych

Salt Prints

Canyon de Chelly National Monument

Navajo Nation, Arizona, April, 1982

Leica M4-2, Agfapan 100 in Rodinal 1:50

 

Salt Prints from digital internegatives September, 2021

Thiorea Gold Toner

 

Three views: from left to right:

White House Ruin (famously photographed by O'Sullivan and Adams)

Spider Rock (800 ft spire, distinctive geologic feature of the park)

View from the rim, somewhere in the canyon

 

I find it difficult to achieve uniform tonality in multiple prints with this hand coated process. Nevertheless, from several prints made over two days, I thought these three looked well together.

 

Off the beaten path in the Navajo Nation, Canyon de Chelly (pronounced de SHAY) is well worth the visit.
