Portrait photo of Scott Dimond, a VAST photographer artist creating very high resolution fine art photos of abandonment, landscapes, and nature
Scott Dimond

I've always had a list of locations around the world that I want to visit or revisit and photograph. Contained within the list is a subset of locations where I want to create ultra-high-resolution images.  Some of the locations have been on the list for many years but as it turns out, 2024 was a good year for me, as I visited four of the locations on my ultra-high-resolution "hit list". Those locations were 1) Manarola in Cinque Terre, Italy, 2) a little-known loop in a mountain road about a 4 hour's drive Northeast of Vancouver, BC, 3) the slot canyons of Arizona, and 4) Bryce Canyon. You can look for my VAST images from all four of these locations on this website. 

In the case of Bryce Canyon, my visit was an extension of a planned trip with my son to hike in Zion National Park. I have always thought that Bryce Canyon with all its Hoodoos cried out for a VAST ultra-high-resolution image. I spent three days in June 2024, photographing Bryce from various vantage points in the early morning and late evenings. There are many viewpoints in which the canyon can be observed and photographed. After spending a long day scouting the canyon, I determined that Bryce Point would provide the best sunrise view for the image I had in mind. It was an early start, rising at 4 am to arrive and be set up on location by 5:30 am. I started photographing the canyon in early light at 5:50 am, capturing parts of the canyon that would remain in shadow long after the sun rose. When the sun did appear, flooding the area with signature light that showcases the canyon's orange stacks, I continued shooting until 6:40 am, capturing 2,382 images to ensure I had all the photos I needed to assemble this 2,900-megapixel ultra-high-resolution VAST photo. This very high-resolution image provides a wonderful view of the wide expanse of the entire Amphitheater at sunrise.

Our canvas material has a delightfully matte finish that looks spectacular in any lighting conditions while retaining maximum vibrancy and contrast. Click here to learn more.

Printed onto heavyweight, 100% acid-free fine art canvas to preserve color-accuracy and longevity

Created using materials and methods that exceed the rigorous technical standards required to achieve the prized "giclée" industry rating

Designed to meet the most demanding standards for color-permanence set by leading museums

Handmade by award-winning master printmakers with over 4 decades of experience

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.
