Newest titanium print! It’s of a region in the Eagle nebula, originally captured by the Hubble telescope. Space seemed like a cool place to explore a little more of the colorspace available in this process. Plate is 12"x18", image is ~9.5"x14".

I’m really happy with how this one came out, the background ‘sky’ is a gradienting deep iridescent blue, and the nebula itself hits some cool magentas, yellows, and a bluish-green that can’t make its mind on what color it wants to be depending on angle and lighting.

      Thank you! For every good print I post here there are 2-3 failed attempts. But the successfully ones are getting cooler and cooler so I’m still stoked!

      Thanks! That’s exactly it on the color, I think it’s a combination of the surface roughness of the titanium plate and tiny variations in the anodization layer itself that give it that look.
