Summary:
Photographs by Helga Teiwes of the Tohono O'odham.Description:
The saguaro juice is strained to separate the liquid from the seeds. The juice will be boiled into a thicker syrup. The seeds are strained from the syrup and, in the past, some of the seeds were used to make a seedy cake. The slides in this collection were filmed on Kodachrome 64 film. In 2003 the slides were scanned on a Minolta Dimage Multiscan Pro at 48 bit color. Each TIFF scan was 11.68 inches by 7.88 inches with a resolution of 300 ppi. The file size was approx. 47.4 MB. In Nov 2006, the original TIFF scans were cropped, color corrected, resized to 6.08 inches by 8.89 inches with a resolution of 72 ppi and converted to JPEGs using ACDSee, v8.0.
