Camerata at the Metro Toronto Zoo
 

Camerata wanted a photograph to use for their travels and concerts during the celebration of 'The Year of the Child'. We went to the Metro Toronto Zoo and took a group photograph. I then went back to the zoo and spent several days photographing animals. The photographs of the animals selected were cut out and pasted onto a large 16 by 20 print of the group. Shadows and edges were retouched on the large print. The print was then photographed using 4 x 5 inch film in a Sinar view camera. This is the result, before the days of Photoshop!
