Barry Herring and his Caffenol images - October 2015




Coffee is a drink that is best shared with friends…  preferably outside.  My triptych illustrates the actions to produce a great cup of coffee.  First, you need to grind beans with a heavy burr, then brew with quality appurtenances, and finally enjoy the pleasure with your special friends.

These Caffenol images that were ethically sourced on film, and processed in a wet darkroom using Coffee Lab, Catalyst Espresso from the Second Crack, and toned with Maxwell House, Original Roast to achieve a mellow result accenting the bright, citrus finish.

Barry Herring is a Victoria lens-based visual artist, whose images explore potentials within the traditions of photographic paper art.  He produces black and white images in a wet-darkroom, and also hand prints digital images, and creates paper productions.  The camera lens is the initial source for his explorations.
