Modern-day physicists continue to explore the fundamental nature of light. Recent experiments show how “distant” atoms “communicate” with each other by exchanging photons of light. With the use of carefully engineered optical nanofibers, physicists have bridged the distance between atoms allowing them to exchange photons at a distance not feasible without the bridge. This image from Silver Lake Park features a literal bridge as a representation of the optical nanofiber bridges now in experimental use.

This image was shot on black and white film, where the film was developed using brewed coffee as the developing fluid; this is the so-called "caffenol" process. The negative was subsequently scanned and prints are made from the resulting digital file. This print is printed on fine art Torchon paper, and numbered and signed by Rick. Print dimensions are 24"x20". This is a print only, with no mat or frame.
