A hazy afternoon at Bempton Cliffs with light so flat it was very nearly useless.
So I stopped fighting it. I opened up, blew the background out to nothing, and let the haze do the work for me. There were thousands of gannets wheeling around the cliff tops and most of them came out as streaks. Then this one came in with everything deployed, wings wide, feet down, putting the air brakes on right in front of me.
In black and white there is nothing left but the shape of the bird against white. Which is exactly what I was after, even if I didn't know it when I set off that morning.
Printed by me, on my own printer, in my spare room. Every print is checked under a proper light before it goes anywhere. If it is not right it does not get sent, it gets binned and I print another one.
Paper: Fotospeed NST Bright White 315, 100% cotton, acid free and archival.
Inks: Epson Surecolor P900 pigment inks, fade resistant.
Border: a white border on all sides, sized for standard frames so a high street frame will fit without a custom mount.
Signed in pencil on the border. A2 and A3 are numbered within the edition and arrive with a signed certificate of authenticity.
Supplied unframed. Every print ships flat, never rolled, between acid free tissue and rigid board.
A2, 420 x 594mm, limited edition of 15
A3, 297 x 420mm, limited edition of 30
A4, 210 x 297mm, open edition
7" x 5", 178 x 127mm, open edition
Once a limited edition size sells out, that image is never printed at that size again.
Free tracked UK delivery. Printed and dispatched within 3 to 5 working days, because prints are left to dry properly before they are packed. International shipping is charged at a flat rate at checkout. Import duties, taxes and carrier handling fees are set by your own country and are the buyer's responsibility. I cannot calculate them in advance and I cannot refund them.
