"Old wooden dories are disappearing from the shoreline. Now everyone uses aluminum or fiberglass vessels – longer life span with less upkeep. This freshly painted specimen caught my eye on a calm night just before sunset. I was fascinated by the altered colors caused by the sun glancing off the surface of the water. This image which is in my book, Coastal Effects, was taken exactly 15 minutes after the vertical Fisherman’s Dory image that became a magazine cover. The sun had just set and was lit by waning sky light. The pink hue in the water is the Belt of Venus, a band of soft red/pink light that sometimes rests just above the horizon opposite the setting sun. It is caused by a backscattering of red light in airborne water molecules." -Jon Vaughan, Photographer Fine Art Photograph by Jon Vaughan, dry mounted on acid-free foam board, custom cut and hinged on an acid-free matte. Framed In Metal. Additional sizes of this image may be available. Please call (508) 945-1288 for more info.

Processes and Materials

This photograph is dry-mounted and personally hand signed by Jon Vaughan on the back, including the title, location and time of year. It is an open edition print on archival pulp paper with archival pigment inks. Please treat it with the same care you would give to watercolor art - framed behind glass and protected from direct sunlight and excessive humidity. The print is permanently dry mounted on acid-free foam board. Then an acid and lignin free mat (Crescent Select - White Sands) is custom cut and museum hinged to the mounting board. The finished piece is protected in a custom sleeve of high clarity archival Mylar film. All of the mounting, matting and framing is done at Yankee Ingenuity. Bob Korn, of Bob Korn Imaging, printed this image, as well as all of Jon Vaughan's images since 1981.
