The Story of the Shot

I came across this magical winter scene on a spring morning in Norris Geyser Basin in Yellowstone. As I was exploring the boardwalk over by Porcelain Basin, I wandered over to Nuphar Lake. Initially, I was attracted to the reflections of trees in the water. But then I noticed the boardwalk slightly submerged in the brilliantly blue lake. Suddenly, I had a new focus! The red needles of the unfortunate dying pine tree provided a striking complement to the vibrant blue of the water. And like most mornings in thermal basins, steam and fog hung in the air, giving a mystical depth to the forest in the background. Add in a lightly-falling snow, and it was truly a magical moment. To me, it looked like it was straight out of a fantasy story, and Narnia was the first example that came to mind.

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.
