208 MEGAPIXEL VAST PHOTO
Midtown Manhattan, New York City
I spend the bulk of my time pursuing views that are unique and rarely if ever seen elsewhere. This is not one of those views. In those cases, I have a motto: if you're gonna do a classic, do it well!
This location was recommended to me by none other than Dan Piech, founder of VAST! If Dan tells you that you gotta see this view, well, you gotta go see it!
I only had four days in the city, and I am NOT a morning person, so how would I know which day to wake up? Well... I'm a meteorologist, so I have the cheat codes! I was able to forecast an incredible sunrise on this morning, so I knew this would be the day to set an early alarm. When I woke up in pitch black and verified that everything was on track, I hopped on the subway and, after running all around the terminal trying to find the correct gate for the bus to the Jersey side (it was my first time, ok?!) I found it just in time and made it over here just as the sky was starting to light up. It took my breath away! Because I had a full day of urban adventure ahead (read: eating bagels, pastrami, and cheesecake), I opted to not bring my tripod at all, even for taking sunrise photos. Thankfully there was a nice railing for me to balance my camera on while I carefully took the frames to put together this VAST photo!

Our ready-to-hang canvas prints are created using a specialty printer that carefully lays pigment inks down onto archival-quality fine art canvas material. The canvas is then stretched around a 1.5-inch-deep wood support structure to provide depth and elegance. 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.
