A 3-minute, sepia-toned film of selected works of Darius Kinsey, a turn-of-the-century photographer whose work focused on the Pacific Northwest logging industry. Soundtrack is from "The River Suite" by Virgil Thomson. Kinsey, a commercial photographer, was a small energetic man who from the 1890s - 1940s turned out thousands of photographs of the immense Pacific Northwest forests and the logging industry that worked them, especially the loggers and their families who lived by felling them. Fifty years of photos at 50 cents a print yielded much more than an extensive catalogue of visual souvenirs for the loggers and a livelihood for Kinsey. Surrounded by several over-sized cameras and a 12-foot tripod, he, along with his wife Tabitha, whose processing and print of the huge glass plate negatives produced technically brilliant and long-lasting images, Kinsey provided us with a rich historical and artistic document. Through his lens, Darius Kinsey gathered and set a simple, honest, and sensitively beautiful impression of a by-gone time and a forever-lost place.
