Description

This is a Gum and Cyanotype print of a long exposure on the beach at night. This is the beach at South Padre Island Texas. The exposure was for 30 seconds or so, and i ran out into the frame and stood by the crashing waves for a while. You can make out my ghostly apparition looking closely in the center. This was printed on a lightweight paper that wrinkles no matter what you do. I love the wet sand and how it reflects the sky.
