About the Prints

Two types of prints are offered on this site: black and white Piezography prints, and Fuji Crystal Archive color prints.
For both types of prints, the original negatives or slides are scanned to digital files using a high resolution scanner. The files are then edited using Adobe Photoshop. The digital equivalent of techniques that originated in the traditional darkroom are used to make the files reflect Greg's artistic vision. Once the editing process is complete, West Coast Imaging prints the files using their Chromira printer or Piezography printer.
The Chromira printer uses LED lights to expose a sheet of Fuji Archive Paper, a traditional color photograhic paper. This paper is then processed in wet RA-4 chemistry. This paper has a display life of 60 to 70 years.
The Piezography printer is an Epson 9500, which uses a superb set of inks made by Cone Editions. These inks are carbon-based and come in several shades of gray. They have a long archival life, and look very similar to a traditional selenium-toned print. The prints are made on Hahnemuhle Photorag paper, a fine art paper similar to a coated watercolor paper. The ink and paper combination should have an archival life of over 100 years if the prints are stored in the dark or displayed in dim light that is not direct sunlight. This display life rivals that of traditional silver gelatin black and white prints.
All prints in the fine art galleries on this site are available in one of the two preceding forms. They include a high quality, archival mat that may be framed as you desire. Prints are shipped flat between several layers of cardboard for protection.
We also offer framed prints that are shipped carefully in boxes with lots of crushable padding.
