Book Six
12x12" Studies
Introduction
This is the sixth collection of 12x12" inkjet prints I have made for the ongoing series of 12x12" Books and Projects. Each of the 12x12" prints constitutes my effort to create an Inkjet Print Archive of some of my favorite photographs dating back to 2011 when I initiated my photography blog TheDepartingLandscape.blogspot.com
After I began publishing my new work as blog projects I decided to discontinue my old practice of making inkjet prints of all the images I liked in a project. This saved me time so I could complete projects faster, and at practically no cost; and if later I wanted to make prints, I had the larger digital files archived and could do that.
Since February 2023 I have made well over five hundred inkjet prints in an attempt to create a an Inkjet Print Archive of some of my favorite images as a physical compliment to the online (blog) archive of the project images I had been building since I retired from teaching in Milwaukee (in 2007) and shortly thereafter moved with my wife to Canandaigua, NY. and initiated my blog. As the print archive expanded I also broadened my idea of what could be included in the 12x12" collections. Now the 12x12" project includes images from projects I had made prior to coming to Canandaigua.

In this sixth blog collection of 12x12" inkjet printed images I have included quite a few Symmetrical Photographs. I encourage you to visit the link if you are not familiar with this aspect of my photography.
As you scroll through the photographs below, you will come to some hyperlinked project titles under the image titles that will allow you to see more blog photographs related to those particular images. Also, at the bottom of this page I have included a list of "related blog projects."

Please Note: If you are viewing this blog project with a laptop or desktop computer, I want to encourage you to click on each image once, and once again, which should allow you to see the photographs in an alternative (and for me preferred) viewing mode in which the images are presented in black space and rendered at their maximum possible image quality in terms of sharpness and tonal fidelity. (For a more technical explanation about all this I invite you to visit this link.)
(I never thought the 12x12" Inkjet Print Project would go beyond Book Six, but as I write this revised version of the introduction in March, 2024, I have nearly completed the Eighth 12x12" BOOK and the Eighth 12x12" PROJECT. Visit this link The Complete series of 12x12" Injet Print Studies PROJECTS, BOOKS which will provide you with all the project links related to my 2023-2024 Inkjet Print Project.)
