Wednesday's photo is 'Light Finds its Mark Once Again,' currently on exhibit at the Chicago Photography Collective's exhibit 'Curious Encounters' at 108 N. State Street. This image was made in 1980 by submerging a photograph of Jerri Zbiral in a fish-tank and shining a spotlight through the water. Please note that I did not submerge Jerri in a fish-tank. I used a 4x5 view camera, which dutifully picked up the bubbles and reflections that help form this magical environment. It was part of an extended series and was fairly widely exhibited at the time. Been in a box for over 30 years.
