Bonjour Hermitage

Scott Dimond

381 MEGAPIXEL VAST PHOTO
Tournon-sur-Rhône, France

For wine lovers of the Syrah grape variety, the Hermitage Hill located in southeastern France is seen by many as the spiritual home of the Syrah grape variety. The Hermitage Hill is located just behind the community of Tain-l'Hermitage (commonly known as Tain) which is located on the left bank of the river Rhône in the French department of Drôme. Tain is home to a large number of wineries, including Maison M. Chapoutier, Caves de Tain, and Paul Jaboulet Âiné.
On the opposite side of the Rhone River is the community of Tournon-sur-Rhône, in the department of Ardèche. High above Tournon-sur-Rhône is a great view that includes Tournon-sur-Rhône itself, the Rhone River, Tain, and of course the Hermitage Hill. It was from that viewpoint that this photo was taken.
I was staying down right beside the Rhone, so to get up to the viewpoint I started hiking the Sentier des Tours (Tower Trail) at 5 am. Of course, I was hauling the specialized equipment needed to create a VAST ultra-high-resolution image, so my pace was steady but not quick. In the end, I made the journey in about 40 minutes and arrived before sunrise which happened at 5:53 am. This image is created from the second set of images I captured while up above Tournon-sur-Rhône. The first set was a wider view that included more of the Hermitage Hill. However, low clouds blocked the sun at that time. Once the sun rose above the low cloud bank the view captured in the second set of images was spectacular, with all the rooftops of both towns in the foreground and the base of the Hermitage Hill leading off to the left beyond Tain all bathed in an orange glow.

VAST Print™

A VAST Print™ represents the pinnacle of the photographic medium. Each print is a true photograph created specifically for you using light-sensitive paper exposed in a darkroom with the industry's highest precision exposure technique. Your print is then sealed with a shine-enhancing protective glossy coating*, adhered to a sturdy aluminum composite backing, and finished in one of two ready-to-hang formats:

Frameless floating display: A hidden mounting brace on the rear gracefully "floats" the print off the wall for a sleek, modern look.
Framed display: The print is mounted inside one of our handcrafted 100% wood frames with a decorative separation between the print and the frame so that the print appears to be floating within the frame, providing depth and elegance to the finished photo.

*Note: a non-glossy, satin matte coating is alternatively available on request.
