Add “New Dawn” to your wall! The offline bestseller for Poetic Planet Imagery is now on the web for the first time! Photographer and writer P. K. W. Braunberger carefully captured and developed this image through a digital process. Insistent on the use of museum-grade archival paper and inks, Braunberger either (a.) printed each copy (for medium or regular sizes) or (b.) oversaw every aspect of the printing process (for large sizes.) PLEASE NOTE: THE WATERMARK DOES NOT APPEAR ON THE PRINTED IMAGE, and THIS PHOTO IS ALSO AVAILABLE IN A LIMITED EDITION OF 50 LARGE-SIZED (24x36-inch) PAPER PRINTS AT ETSY LISTING: https://www.etsy.com/sg-en/your/shops/PoeticPlanetImagery/onboarding/listings/1080918175.
About capturing “New Dawn,” Braunberger writes: "I rose in darkness, bundled up, and headed from Yachats, Oregon to the rock shelter overlooking Cape Perpetua, hoping to photograph dawn on the coast below. On the trail back, I couldn't help but notice golden spears of sun slicing through the temperate, semi-rainforest. As a color shot, I did not find it emotionally moving. So I converted it to black and white. Then it spoke thunder. Of all the pictures I have taken, this is the one that most often evokes an emotional reaction. It is the one people purchase most frequently (at least so far) and will always be one of my own favorites."
For sizes 11x17" and below, Braunberger produces all prints to ensure perfect color and quality. (Braunberger currently works closely with an external photo lab to print the large, 24x36-inch prints of this image; that collaboration adds 3-5 business days of processing time.) All images are printed with museum-grade papers and inks. Each print comes with two copies of a certificate of authenticity, which may optionally include a caption, Braunberger's account of taking the photo (see above), your own custom message, or Braunberger's poem “New Dawn.”
THE POEM:
"Hood of night: cold, long,
Who sees an end to despair?
'til it cuts through: Dawn."
THE CAPTION (which may be printed on each certificate of authenticity in place of the poem) reads: "Night seems so long. Trust dawn to come."
SIZES AVAILABLE AT THIS LISTING: Medium (11x17 inches) and Regular (8x10-inch-equivalent)
FRAMING VARIATIONS AVAILABLE AT THIS LISTING: Just the Print (unmatted and unframed)
CURRENT SIZE VARIATIONS:
*LARGE (24x36 inches): This is the size to get. Braunberger has limited the paper print run of "New Dawn" to an edition of 50 printings only, making it perfect for discerning collectors. The photographer signs, titles, dates, and numbers each limited edition print. Every print also comes with two copies of a certificate of authenticity. However, due to the way Etsy is structured, we cannot make our large, limited edition prints of “New Dawn” available at this listing: PLEASE USE THE ETSY LISTING AT https://www.etsy.com/your/shops/PoeticPlanetImagery/onboarding/listings/1080918175 TO ORDER THIS IMAGE IN THE LARGE SIZE. (Also, please allow 3-5 business days of processing time before shipment.) Snatch them up before they are all gone!
*MEDIUM (11x17 inches): If you must have a print of “New Dawn” (as a gift for a friend, a treat for yourself, or both) but can't get the large size, you're in the right spot: USE THIS ETSY LISTING TO ORDER any medium-sized prints of this image. Braunberger did not limit production of “New Dawn” before first selling it in the medium size, so we are able to produce 11x17s of the photo in open edition (on-demand) print runs. Each open edition print comes signed, titled, and dated, but numbering is for limited edition on sale prints only. All prints also arrive with two copies of a certificate of authenticity. If purchased in reasonable quantities (5 prints or less per order), we will only need 1 business day of processing time before shipping any medium-sized, unmatted and unframed prints
*REGULAR ( 8x10-inch-equivalent): If you can't live without a print of “New Dawn” but are unable to order it in the large or medium sizes, you're where you need to be: USE THIS ETSY LISTING TO GET THE PHOTO in our space-and-budget-friendly, 8x10-inch-equivalent size. Why not a standard 8x10? Braunberger felt that cropping the image to fit 8x10 inches made it lose some emotional impact. We are able to produce these 8x10-equivalents in open edition print runs because Braunberger did not limit production of “New Dawn” before first selling it in the 8x10-inch size class. Each open edition print comes signed, titled, and dated, but numbering is for limited edition prints only. All prints also arrive with two copies of a certificate of authenticity. If purchased in reasonable quantities (5 prints or less per order), we only need 1 business day of processing time before shipping any regular-sized, unmatted and unframed prints.
CURRENT FRAMING VARIATIONS:
*JUST THE PRINT, ready to mat and frame (Open and Limited Editions): You're in the perfect spot if you want to mat and frame this small or medium print yourself. USE THIS ETSY LISTING TO ORDER. Comes with two copies of a certificate of authenticity. Ships in 1 business day.
