All prints are printed by me on double-weight fiber-based paper, archivally
processed, selenium toned, signed, numbered, and dry-mounted. Mats
are archival quality and acid free.  Actual print sizes may vary slightly.
Out looking for weather photos for the newspaper on a Sunday afternoon, I drove up Ox
Creek Road outside of Weaverville under a clear blue sky, and was dazzled by the rime ice
on the trees along the Mountains-to-Sea trail.  I shot several digital photos, then took a few
minutes to get the 4x5 out of the car.  Shooting straight up is always difficult with a view
camera, and of course the wind picked up, swaying the trees.  I was able to "stop" the motion
with a super-fast 1/10 sec shutter speed.  The resulting negative is a lot harder to print than I
thought it would be, but I like the effect.

As most people seem to
prefer them, prices are for
framed prints, ready to
hang.  I use a very nice
matt black wood frame 7/8
of an inch wide, with a
white mat.  If you would
like to order unframed
prints, go to the
"Purchase" page for
pricing.
