Liberty Bestows Life

553 MEGAPIXEL VAST PHOTO
Liberty Wreck, Tulamben, Bali, Indonesia

"Macro-mosaic" of the side of a decades old shipwreck in Tulamben, Bali, captured in multiple close-up images taken with a specialized camera platform. The sides of the ship are covered in marine life from the vivid hues of soft corals and barrel sponges to a variety of colorful reef fish. The hull of the ship, rusting away after many years underwater has created large holes, allowing a view of the reef behind and the sun shining through the clear water.

The wreck of a 1941 Liberty ship wrecked off the coast of Bali, Indonesia has become a vibrant coral reef, covered in soft corals, colorful sponges. The ship was sunk very close to shore and much of the shipwreck is a mere 10-15 feet deep, making it accessible to snorkelers and scuba divers alike. After decades underwater, the ship has become part of the ecosystem here, transforming the decaying remains of the ship into a stunning array of new life.

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.
