Hardcoal Chronicles 40th
1973 - 2013
Cataloging the Chronology
“The Devil’s in the Details”
An exposure of 1/250th of a second in the field is often preceded by days or weeks of research, planning, budgeting time-slotting, and travelling. Afterward, hours and hours of exposure recording, production planning, image verification cross-checking, final data entry, cataloging, and archival storage preparation is required. So, contrary to what most people think, doing this has never been fun nor easy — but it is unavoidably necessary. And, it’s essential in order to ensure the efficient transfer of this historic material back to my region and people after my time is gone.
