Pizzaboats - Limited Edition 1 of 100 Photograph by Derek Simpson

Photography: Digital on Paper.

A fierce squall abated on Castlerock beach. Sunshine blazed in the clean after-storm air. Away over Donegal and across to Islay the air was turbulent but the sky deep blue. The yachts which had been racing at the mouth of Lough Foyle briefly aligned as caught in the photograph. When the gods gift superb light and superb subject matter the instincts of a sports photographer take over - waiting for the moment. The title is thanks to the grandchildren. Image measures 15"x21.5" on 17"x25" Canson (est 1557) Platine semi-gloss paper. Printed with Epson Ultrachrome Pigment ink & varnished with Permafix to protect against UV and moisture. Best framed behind UV glass particularly by the seaside where Ozone is a problem.
