Scott Dimond's Long-term Parking series is a collection of ultra-high-resolution VAST photos of classic cars distinguished by the passage of time. Having rested, abandoned for decades, the cars are patiently waiting to be selected for refurbishment or perhaps to have some of their parts contribute to the refurbishment of other cars.
Scott captures the soul of these gems of a bygone era in exquisite detail, revealing their beauty that still exists to this day. Where others would see junk, Scott sees the adventures that happened in these cars, the love their owners had for them, and the classic car culture that birthed them so long ago.
Using advanced selective-focus techniques paired with the VAST technique, Scott has created compositions whose subjects pop out of the frame in unparalleled sharpness while the surrounding imagery fades into a beautiful bokeh. As the cars sit amongst their neighbors and the overgrown carpet of weeds, they tell their stories - stories of love, youth, experience, character, and wisdom. The faded paint, rusted edges, and dulled chrome belie the true character of these beauties Scott has captured for us.

Our photographic prints are created using a specialty, large-format fine art printer designed to produce archival, museum-grade prints. They are true "chromogenic" prints: light-sensitive paper exposed in a darkroom using state-of-the-art lasers to produce the sharpest possible image. Click on the icons below to learn more or click here to explore further.
Our photographic prints are available in one of two finishes: glossy and lustre. Glossy prints have a rich, silky saturation and are great for environments where the lighting and reflections have been carefully thought through. Lustre prints have a bright, sparkle-like finish that diffuses reflections and are therefore more versatile for environments where the lighting and reflections are less under your control.
Your print comes with two certificates of authenticity hand-signed by the artist and the printmaker: one that you will affix to the finished piece and one that remains standalone. Additionally, your print's provenance is tracked and verified using state-of-the-art digital technology. Learn more.
Our acrylic glass displays are ready-to-hang works of art that contain one of our photographic prints sealed between flame-polished acrylic glass and an aluminum backing. A hidden mounting brace on the rear causes the display to gracefully "float" off the wall for a sleek, modern frameless look that complements nearly any decor style.
