Ribbed for Pleasure (2022)
Death Valley National Park
The absolute depth and scale of the landscape found within Death Valley National Park creates one of the most pleasurable experiences I've had as a landscape photographer in quite some time. My goal as a photographer over the past 5 years has been to occupy an emotional flow state of joy and curiosity with the hopes that it yields photographs that are unique, personally-expressive, and visually interesting. Sometimes I am successful and other things I am not - and this is totally acceptable to me. This particular scene was something I found while wandering deep into the badlands of Death Valley not too far from a very iconic location that is often frequented and where copy-cat images are manufactured on a daily basis. While that format of creating images may be appealing for some, I have found much more joy personally in just setting aside all expectation and enjoying what I may find on my journey. This image is the result of that type of mindset - I found a lot of pleasure in finding and photographing these colorful ribbed rock formations. Hopefully you don't mind the playful title of the image.

Fine Art Paper Print

Your fine art photography artwork is printed on beautiful Canson Infinity Platine Fibre Rag Paper. This is by far my favorite paper print to use for fine art printing. It has a really nice rag texture and presents details in a stunning way. This paper is 100% cotton, has a beautiful platinum finish for that classic darkroom look. This paper is 310 gsm with a thickness of 15.6 mil and is rated with a whiteness of 89.12%. Prints are shipped rolled in a tube and should be taken directly to your framer to prevent unintentional damage.

ChromaLuxe Fine Art Metal Print

ChromaLuxe Metal Prints are a fantastic budget-conscious fine art print option that preserves high details and color-rendition without sacrificing on quality. Each print's edges are finished to provide a smooth presentation and all four edges are rounded to prevent snags and cuts. Metal prints come in two varieties - glossy and matte. Glossy metal prints are very glossy and can reflect ambient light. They are ideal in locations with low natural light and good directional light from above and have a bit of extra pop in color. Matte metal prints do not reflect nearly as much ambient light and have slightly less "pop." Upon ordering, I will ask you which one you prefer. If you do not respond I will assume you prefer the matte finish.
My ChromaLuxe metal prints are ready to hang upon arrival.
ChromaLuxe’s archival qualities, image brilliance, and durability make it an excellent all-around choice.

Acrylic Fine Art Masterpiece

Your fine photography art is printed on a fine art paper which creates stunning gallery-quality color prints. This medium shows the full depth and color range as I experienced and looks absolutely stunning.
Once printed, the fine art print is placed behind Anti-Reflective acrylic and on top of another acrylic archival substrate. A special adhesive is used to bond the fine art print to the acrylic. This mounting method prevents bowing of the print which is caused by expansion and contraction of the acrylic.
Your fine art is Face Mounted on lens-grade optically clear 1/8″ Anti-Reflective acrylic. This revolutionary product delivers the highest-resolution viewing experience of photographic artwork available today. Our acrylic is 99% UV resistant, helping preserve the life of the print.
Ambient and directed light that shines through the face of these prints is accentuated by the acrylic glass, creating a 3-D or back-lit feel that will absolutely astonish you. To fully enjoy the benefits of an acrylic print, it should be properly lit.
The Acrylic Face Mount comes ready to hang with a Wall Buddies hanging system. An acrylic face mount piece of art will look great against most any wall type.
