View Inside Window

A view inside, two diners enjoying a meal. I was in Ashland, it was evening and when I saw the the color of the building and the window looking in, I wanted to get a picture. I have to confess, this image seems to have somewhat of a mystical presence. I took the picture in a fairly linear fashion (see the unedited version in the gallery lineup) and I made a mistake in Photoshop with a setting and accidentally selected perspective warp and it turned the window in a wonky fashion. Ordinarily, the undo button should have corrected this (I tried multiple times) but it didn’t work. I decided that I like the perspective change so I stuck with the mistake. I also decided early on to replace the tv screen inside the window (something I almost never do) because I thought it distracted from the main subject, the two diners. Suffice it to say, (see the other version in my blog post: A Look Inside Windows – Photographs), I decided the original unmodified version was best and that contrary to my initial concern it seems like it adds to the picture with the face looking back at the camera. A lot of meta for one image.

Archival-Quality Prints: A Century of Timeless Memories

These prints are not just images, they can become old friends. Crafted to meet stringent archival standards, the papers and inks we use are designed to last over a century with the right care. Here’s what it means for you:

• Longevity: Each print is engineered to endure, with a lifespan extending beyond 100 years when kept in optimal conditions.
• Care Instructions: To maintain image quality:
  ◦ Store unframed prints in an archival-quality container.
  ◦ For framed displays, use archival matting and adhesive, coupled with UV-filtering glass to safeguard against sunlight and environmental damage.
  • Environment Matters: Place your artwork away from direct sunlight and high humidity to maintain its pristine condition.

By playing your part as the custodian of these photographic prints, you help secure their beauty for generations to come.
