Winter Mooring

Chatham in December "On this particular day – the last day of December, Stage Harbor froze over locking this sailboat in an icy grip. Executing the shot was tricky because it was snowing heavily. The flakes were huge and all it would have taken was one to fall into the lens to blur the picture. Fortunately and unusually, there was no wind so the flakes fell straight down while I executed the shot. I discovered later that the boat’s name was “Bananas” – suitable given its color and that it was a little crazy to leave it on it’s mooring in late December." -Jon Vaughan, Phototgrapher Fine Art Photograph by Jon Vaughan, dry mounted on acid-free foam board, custom cut and hinged on an acid-free matte.

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.
