Framed in a 12 x 16 inch white MDF wood frame. The paper itself is 9 x 12 inches. The light-sensitive photo chemicals were brushed onto the paper ("stained" or "coated") loosely in such a way that the edges appear to melt away as if in a vague memory.
This is a handmade contact photo, which means that the negative was the same size as the eventual photograph and was laid directly on top of the treated paper in order to make the print. The blue and white cyanotype process was developed in the mid-1800s and is an alternative photographic process to the usual black-and-white process.
The tree is an oak. The road is Skyline Blvd in Oakland where I live. I captured the moment when the sun begins to burn through the winter morning fog in the hills of Oakland, California, across the bay from San Francisco, which has its own reputation for fog.
