Portrait photo of David Meaux, a VAST photographer creating extremely high resolution photographs
David Meaux

It takes very special weather conditions that can only be found during a certain time of year to get this colorful of a sunset with a clear view of the Canigou (seen on the horizon at the right third of the image) from Cap d'Agde (the foreground rocks). During most of the year, especially during summertime, the Canigou is obscured from all the atmospheric haze brought about from the high humidity of the region. In order to observe a scene like this, there must be clear weather at the surface between Agde, the Canigou, and where the sun is setting, yet low enough clouds that the light refracts and creates a kaleidoscope of colors from golden yellow to deep purple.
I love to use this time of year to create moody images such as this one, which uses the low golden light to juxtapose the smooth surface of the water with the rugged volcanic rocks and the warm light of the setting sun with the cool color of the low hanging clouds and their reflection on the water.

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.
