Magnolia Garden, South Carolina

Delve into the mysterious allure of the Southern wetlands with “Hiding Alligator,” an original photograph by the renowned explorer and photographer Kim A. Bailey. Taken in the tranquil Magnolia Garden of South Carolina, this captivating image captures the essence of the region’s rich biodiversity.

Camouflaged amidst the lush greenery, the alligator lurks in the shadows, blending seamlessly into its natural habitat. Its piercing gaze hints at the untamed beauty and inherent danger of the wetlands, inviting viewers to ponder the delicate balance between predator and prey in this ecosystem.

Whether displayed in a wildlife sanctuary, a nature lover’s home, or a gallery, “Hiding Alligator” serves as a powerful reminder of the resilience and adaptability of nature’s inhabitants.

Hiding Alligator is printed using traditional high-quality methods. It will be printed on Kodak’s Metallic Photographic paper. I use this paper for most of my prints since I love the little glitter that it adds. Kodak’s Endura Metallic paper can put so much “pop” in the enlargements that they’ll look as if they were taken in 3D! The secret behind this amazing paper is literally behind the picture! Kodak has placed a silvery metallic surface under the dye image. This layer acts like a mirror, reflecting the light illuminating the front of the print back through the dyes. The result is a brilliant, almost translucent effect that can be far brighter than conventional enlargements. This paper is also stable in that it lasts 100 years in a typical home display, 200 years in dark storage and 1 to 5 years for commercial display (Quoted from Kodak’s Spec sheet).
