WAIMEA VALLEY BANYAN TREE SILVER HALIDE PRINTED BY PHOTOGRAPHER ON 8X10" MATT

Description

This is a fine art quality original hand printed silver halide gelatin photograph (not a digital inkjet print) custom printed by longtime Hawaii professional photographer Bill Romerhaus in a darkroom from the original negative, archivally developed in chemistry on Ilford 'Pearl' semi-matte surface black & white photographic paper, cropped, and mounted on an 8x10 inch backing board **included as part of the print (see photo) of a banyan tree at Waimea Falls Park, Haleiwa, north shore, Oahu ©1981. It is initialed (B
R
'81) and dated on the front of the photo, and is shrink wrapped to protect it from damage. It has preservation tips and photographer info included in the label on the back. Please note the the upper tree area is a little darker because it was in the shadows but is still a nice artistic photo.
It would make a great birthday or holiday gift for someone who likes Hawaii trees, nature, or artistic black & white images of Hawaii. They are popular reasonably priced decorations for restaurants, offices, homes, or stores where people can see them.
Our hand printed silver halide gelatin original photos are very popular and affordable to local people and tourists visiting Hawaii, as well as people who have never visited Hawaii.
We're proud to mention that many of our photos were used as background artwork in the new CBS television network series "Hawaii 5-0".
The photos are the 'old style' traditional film based images printed using an enlarger from a negative on real photographic paper and archivally processed by hand, not by a machine. Prices are less than you would pay retail at a gallery or custom photo lab for a hand printed and mounted silver halide black and white print and production costs are lower than most folks, we want to offer affordable quality art for people who might not otherwise be able to afford it.

PLEASE ALSO NOTE
:
e-Bay's transfer process and the computer screen makes the photo look contrasty and slightly darker or lighter, depending on your monitor brightness and contrast settings. This photo is printed on non-glossy semi-matte 'pearl' surface paper and the photo offered has more gray tones, deep, richer blacks, less contrast, and has the unique look of a real silver halide gelatin print, which has a different tonal range and brightness than you may see on your individual computer screen. It is printed on 8x10 inch paper from an original negative and margins may be slightly trimmed. **When it is cropped and attached to the single mat 8x10" backing board you will be able to see the  backing board around the borders of the print. It makes the print look like there is a margin at the edges of the photo which you can see here.
Prints are permanently mounted to the acid free backing board using archival photo adhesive and cannot easily be removed from the backing board without damaging the photo. An 11x14 inch frame (or larger) with a custom cut mat from a frame shop or art store is the suggested way to display this photo. If you want to use a larger frame and mat and you can't find an experienced framer who knows how to do it, contact us and we can provide information explaining how it can be done. This is recommended for suggested visual and artistic impact in displaying this photo, although many people are happy using a standard 8x10" frame and displaying the image as is. We also can print this in larger sizes, please inquire.
