Blue Latan Palm, Saint John, US Virgin Islands, 1994

The huge fan-shaped fronds on the Blue Latan Palm create a captivating pattern that compelled me to photograph it. Because the fronds are so large, any slight breeze causes them to move. Using my 4x5 view camera set to obtain maximum sharpness, I had to wait for calm moments and make several exposures to get a negative without wind-caused blur in this resulting tack-sharp photograph. This photograph appears in my book Resonance.
