Las Vegas Strip at the Cosmopolitan

765 MEGAPIXEL VAST PHOTO
Las Vegas, Nevada

Back in 2011, just after the Cosmopolitan opened for business, I captured what I thought was a fantastic image similar to this one, using a Nikon D7000 and executing a crude panoramic shot with a standard tripod. The result was a “huge” (not really) 3-image composition that was sort of impressive for a while.

Fast-forward to 2016 and I now had a Nikon D810 and panoramic photo gear. This balcony, with its bird’s-eye view of the fountain at Bellagio, Caesars Palace, Paris, and most every other iconic structure on the strip, became my highest priority for a return shoot.

The price for the balcony room had tripled in the five years since the first shot, but it was well worth it. The unmatched detail and vantage point of the shot makes this a top-five photo in my portfolio for sure. Multiple images were taken and blended such that the most interesting fountain conditions and billboard displays could be included in this ultra-high-resolution VAST photo of the Las Vegas Strip.

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.
