The Story of the Shot

Capturing ice on Lake Superior is one of my favorite winter hobbies. I set off on this particular morning amidst temperatures hovering around 0 degrees F. Given the frigid temps, I expected to find all kinds of cool ice formations floating on Lake Superior. But as I strolled along the beach near Marquette, I was surprised to find that the lake was mostly ice-free. The ice hadn’t quite built up on the surface of the lake itself, but it was all over the rocks and driftwood along the shore. This actually worked out quite well, because it meant I could use a longer shutter to blur the water, creating a mystical fantasy vibe. In order to get this shot, I had to wade into the water slightly. Fortunately, my waterproof boots kept my feet from freezing, but my boot laces turned into a solid block of ice!

Print Type

METAL: Metal prints feature dye directly infused onto a thin sheet of aluminum. They are sleek and modern, featuring vibrant colors and an almost magical luminescence. Because they are made from a solid sheet of metal, they are waterproof and scratch resistant. Also, no framing is required for metal prints! Simply mount the print directly to your wall (mounting hardware is included with each print).

PAPER: Paper prints are un-framed and include just the print itself. The buyer is responsible for matting and framing the print once it has been delivered. That way, you can use a frame that you already have, or choose your own custom frame to better match your existing décor.

PLEASE NOTE: All prints ship directly from my print lab partner and are therefore not able to be signed. If you are interested in a signed print, please contact me to place a custom order. Signed prints usually cost slightly more since I need to have the print shipped twice (once from the print lab to me, and again from me to you).

Shipping

All orders ship for free. Please allow 2-4 weeks total for production and shipping/delivery. At this time, I am only able to ship to the contiguous 48 US states. Any orders with a shipping address outside of this area will be canceled and refunded.
