Clouds - Valley of Fire NV

924 MEGAPIXEL VAST PHOTO
Valley of Fire, Nevada

The Valley of Fire State Park, located just over an hour north of the renowned Las Vegas Strip, is an absolute gem. This magnificent 46,000 acre park, nestled in the Mojave Desert, is celebrated for its Aztec Sandstone formations, which have taken an astounding 150 million years to shape into the stunning marvels we behold today.

This park boasts a multitude of well-known attractions, from iconic rock formations to sites where major movies were filmed, and even ancient petroglyphs. However, in keeping with its namesake, the true spectacle unfolds at sunset when the rocks emanate a breathtaking crimson glow.

I have been fortunate enough to visit this remarkable place several times, with the intention of capturing something truly unique and captivating. In contrast to most artworks inspired by this area's vibrant red glow, my aim was to create a piece that evokes a distinct emotional response.

In this expansive VAST photograph, I have immortalized the skies adorned with brooding storm clouds, harmoniously juxtaposed with the layers of vibrant sandstone in the foreground. This snapshot captures a fleeting moment when nature's opposing forces converge in perfect harmony. Experience the invigorating energy of an impending storm about to unleash its power, while simultaneously being enveloped in the tranquil serenity that blankets the landscape at sunset.

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.
