“Ancient Birch #8”, in the New Hampshire’s White Mountains, is offered as a custom fine art color photographic print, signed and numbered with a certificate of authenticity.

I photographed this subject in Kodak 4×5 transparency film, to capture the detail and subtle pastel color palette and appealing contrast of this ancient Birch Tree. I am always please to find a very old Birch or Beech tree that was left un-cut by the loggers that clear-cut most of the eastern US forest. They make for wonderful tree portraits as their often pastel color palette, interesting bark and appealing texture make great subjects in the right lighting. I discovered this tree, a lonely remnant of the uncut forest, along the Imp Brook in the White Mountains. The saturation of the pastels in the lichens was rendered by a soft early light that allowed just the right amount of shadow detail to enhance the texture in the bark.

This limited Edition Print will be Signed and Numbered. Pricing includes the print only with a white border and includes free shipping unless otherwise noted. This Print Requires Framing (see detailed info below).

Description

“Ancient Birch #8” is offered as a limited edition, color fine art photographic landscape print. I captured this subject in the White Mountains of New Hampshire on Kodak E100s color 4×5 transparency film with an Ebony 4×5 view camera and 180mm APO Rodenstock Sironar S APO lens.

There is also a black and white, landscape orientation version of this image taken with B&W TMax sheet film available in the Black and White Intimate Landscapes collection. The drum scan of the 4×5 transparency assures print sizes to 48″ x 60″ are critically sharp at extremely close viewing distances. All images are as I saw them and imaged with only color, brightness, shadow and contrast & local light and shadow adjustments, just as I did in the darkroom. 

This is a museum quality fine art print in Color.  Included in Your Print Purchase:

  • Pricing includes the print only, shipped flat to 16 x 20 or rolled in a tube mailer for larger sizes.

Framing, Presentation and Preservation:

  • All prints will require a frame, glass and backing material that matches print size. (Frames usually come 1/8” oversized to accommodate the glass, print and backing, please verify.)
  • Borderless Framing (meaning no cut matboard): All prints include a white border containing the number and signature.
  • Again, the white borders of the print assure that a cut mat board is not required for framing an Archival Print.
  • Acid Free white foamcore is a good choice for backing in .25” thickness. An Acid Free matboard is optional between the backer board and the print.
  • Glass Options (“the Glazing”): Classic AR Glass, Museum Glass or other UV glass or a UV Acrylic as the “Glazing” (again meaning Glass) is highly recommended for UV protection and to protect the print. Classic AR Glass and Museum Glass are Anti-Reflective which greatly enhances viewing the print.
  • No spray or coating is required or recommended on any of our prints, please refrain from any such treatment.

Other Framing Options: We can help with the framing in several molding styles and glazing options or steer you in the right direction for the perfect framing materials that assure archival print endurance.Click to Read About Our Preferred Method of “Borderless” Archival Framing in this PDFAll prints include shipping costs and are printed in archival inks on the finest quality photo rag papers.
