I am a curator. Is your work available for exhibition?
Yes. David's fine art images are available for exhibition in both the United States and abroad. Please contact directly to discuss details on your venue and exhibition dates. Past exhibition installation photos are available upon request for many bodies of work.
What size prints do you offer?
Most prints are available either 10" x 10" matted to 16" x 20", or 16" x 16" matted to 22" x 22". Prints are sold matted (i.e. ready to be framed) because the matting is considered part of the art. Each print is archivally dry mounted to a piece of mat board. The "window" mat board is then placed on top of the dry mounted print. Rising White mat board is used exclusively for its archival and aesthetic characteristics. European sizes can easily be accommodated.
Are your images available for licensing?
Yes. All David's images are available for royalty free stock licensing, including book cover design. High resolution images are available upon request. Please contact directly to discuss details.

What type of film cameras do you use?
David uses either a 1982 Bronica SQ-A, a 1995 Hasselblad 503CXi, or a 2002 Holga medium format camera to make the photographs he exhibits and sells today. These cameras produce exceptionally detailed negatives measuring 2.25" x 2.25" each with their own signature "look". He usually uses Kodak Tmax 100 or 400 black and white film to achieve extremely fine grained enlargements, or Ilford 3200 for grainy images taken at dusk. Most frequently, he uses the Bronica 50mm PS or Hasselblad 50mm CF lenses which give a wide angle in the field of view. He also uses 80mm and 150mm lenses. For precise metering, he takes advantage of the Minolta Spotmeter M. Tiffen green, yellow #15, and haze filters are utilized quite often. The green filter is very useful to lighten green objects (such and foliage or grass) against a dark subject.
