I was driving home from college in the late 1970s when I came upon a home with the most beautiful and colorful washline I had ever seen. I spent about 30 minutes photographing the porch and washline. At the time I was taking my very first class in photography. I discovered as I experimented with my images, that I was interested in taking my images to a new level where small, or even large, changes could enhance the final product. I began to experiment with different ways to capture the images, from different angles to fogging the camera lens, to smearing a filter with vaseline to emphasize specific portions of the image. Likewise I experimented with different ways to print the images. This particular image is a color photograph printed through a piece of textured glass. I loved the effect, and used it for a number of my images. I would create the image, and scan it at a high resolution for output in a signed limited edition.

The image is also produced as a more affordable unsigned open-edition. I offer them on three separate websites my site for signed originals is WayneDKing.com, the open-edition prints can be found at both RedBubble.com and FineArtAmerica.com. The open-edition prints are designed for people who love the image but don't feel the need to purchase a signed print which is considered a longer-term investment.
