Notes: For ease of do-it-yourself framing, all 8x10 and 11x14 unframed prints are nominally sized (with standard 1/4" margin insets to fit standard framing supplies). All other prints are sold with actual (true) sizing. Frames are 3/4" (19mm) width and are made of wood, except for the chrome-finish frame, which is aluminum. Mats are black core (with a black bevel), providing a 1/16" (1.5mm) width of black line around the photograph. A 1/4" (6mm) margin lies between the mat and the image. The title and India ink signature are placed within this 1/4" margin at the bottom. Backing is foam-core. All materials, including inks, papers, matting, backing, and adhesives, are acid-free. Prints are lacquer top-coated for preservation. Glazing is UV-blocking acrylic.

Artist's description:

This man was selling ice creams (helados) near the town square in San Miguel de Allende in Mexico. His children were busily churning the ice cream nearby. Unfortunately this shot was taken during my early teen years with my first 35mm camera, which had a rather shaky lens, so there's a bit of image shake. Captured with a Honeywell H-1, with a Takumar 55mm, f/2.2 semiautomatic lens, Plus-X film.

Artist's technical assessment of the image quality:

    Sharpness: acceptable
    Camera shake: moderate -- but digitally retouched
    Grain: fine/moderate
    Compression artifact: n/a
    Chromatic aberration: n/a
    Distortion: none
    Maximum acceptable enlargement: This image can be enlarged quite a bit, but the lens shake becomes apparent at higher enlargements in some parts of the picture. Most problem areas have been digitally retouched.

Image detail:

    *These are swatches from the image when magnified to the indicated size, as viewed on the average 17" monitor at 1024x768 pixels. They show you the actual sharpness of the print that will hang on your wall. If you have a smaller monitor or have your monitor configured with more pixels, you should "imagine" these swatches a bit larger. Please note that compression artifact (including checkering and banding around higher contrast edges) may be evident as you view these images online. This is a compromise in jpeg images that makes them quicker to load on a web page. The printed image will not have these defects, unless noted under "Artist's technical assment of the image quality. (See "Compression artifact")."
