Unusual Crop on Canvas

[Frank Schmidt]

I’m calling this style and process Photo_21. (21st Century Camera Work)

Original picture: 0027, Canon 60D, 18-135mm at 37mm, f/20, ISO 160 for 41 sec. candle lit the last second before closing the shutter. Camera on tripod in a dark studio. I did straighten, brighten, crop and sign it in Picasa 3. Then GIMP was used to make the edge tabs. This picture is about 18 inches across and stands off the wall about 1.25 inches. It cost about $25 to print on canvas. (The first picture below just shows how the stretcher frame was built.)
