Label copy

By utilizing various liquid and powder darkroom chemicals, Denny Moers creates photographic monoprints that allow for a surprising range of painterly color on traditional black-and-white paper. Here Moers captures not only the image of the birds overhead, but also the exhilarating experience of watching birds in flight.
