Summer Evening on St Giles - handmade silver-chemistry photograph

Wendy Stone makes her photographs of Oxford slowly on film and paper using remarkable cameras and silver-based photographic chemistry, processes and printing. Her cameras range from 60 to 130 years old and she uses roll film, sheet film, paper and even glass plates to create images.

This view of St Giles was taken with her 1967 Rolleicord camera.

Wendy says: "At the end of a long summer day the low sunlight reaches the gates to St John's college and the pinnacles at the top of the walls. I love these shadow patterns on the old walls that only happen at that precise time on one day each year. In this case it was August the 14th at about 7pm."
