Twelve Stars, Norhtern California 2011.
The image size is 15x15 inches, printed on 16x20" paper. The photo is made on Bergger triple weight paper, rich in silver, a luster finish and has an ivory tint to the base of the paper. The prints were then toned in gold chloride, giving a slightly bluish cast to the mid-tones and shadows, and also makes the prints much more archival, as the silver is coated with gold.
I am not dry mounting or matting these prints, as I think you may want to mat and frame the photo custom for your given space. If you are interested in this print, please contact one of my representative galleries immediately, as I don't want you to miss this great opportunity.
The price on this special edition photograph is $400, limited to an edition of 25 copies. They will be sold on a first come, first serve basis.
As you can see, the glow of the moon (out of frame) is centralized at the top of the image, the ocean below is silvery with the reflected light. It is a photo of nothingness, yet it is a scene which massages the mind into a calmer state of being. There is a name for this, Mushin, meaning mind without mind. It is achieved when a person's mind is free from thoughts of everyday life. Each time I look at this photo, it brings me Mushin, and I hope it does for you too.
