Transformation, Original Photograph by Kim A. Bailey

Transformation
2017
Wyoming

This snow-covered mountainside tells a powerful story of resilience. Tall pine trees rise from the landscape—some evergreen, others burning bright in autumn orange. Look closer, and you’ll see the darkened trunks, marked by a fire that passed through months ago.

The contrast is striking: the purity of fresh snow, the vivid color of life returning, and the shadows of what was scorched. Nature endures, adapts, and even finds a way to be beautiful in the aftermath.

This photograph is for those who find meaning in recovery, who are drawn to the tension between fragility and strength.

Transformation 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).
