Artwork description:

A study in simultaneous fragility and strength. A tiny wildflower blooming into stunning beauty on a harsh and bleak Scottish hillside.

Shot on 35mm film, August 2017. The background effect here is achieved by using a prime lens with a very wide aperture, to give the depth of field which blurs the background while keeping the subject sharp. It has been created entirely on the film, in the camera, without digital post-processing.

Large 30 x 20 inch print (75cm x 50cm approx.).
Only three prints available at this size.

Archival C-Type print from a colour film negative scan, with a wide border for mounting/framing. Signed and numbered on the front in the border, and coming with a certificate of authenticity.

From May 2017, my analogue photographs will be available in a total edition of 10 + 2AP. This photograph is available in the following sizes:

1 x 60x40in print (£750).
2 x 45x30in prints (£495).
3 x 30x20in prints (£250).
4 x 24x16in prints (£175).

Sold unmounted/unframed. Please get in touch if you wish to discuss mounting and framing options, or to purchase a different size from that listed here.

Unmounted C-Type prints are produced using a traditional photochemical process, with true photographic paper exposed from the digital scan and then developed. The gallery-quality archival paper used is selected by me as appropriate to the particular photograph from papers manufactured by Fuji, Kodak and Ilford.

Additional images simulated and for illustration purposes only.
