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

I have spent a significant amount of time in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, especially the Porcupine Mountains, Pictured Rocks, and Tahquamenon Falls areas. Given that this is my home state it’s always nice to photograph its beauty, and it is beautiful.

It’s not called the Great Lake State for nothing. Water everywhere. The Upper Peninsula should probably be called The Great Waterfall Peninsula since water cascading and/or seeping, as depicted in this image “Mountain Tears”, can be found around every turn.

I photographed this image while on a multi-day backpack through the Porcupine Mountain Wilderness. It was an absolute glorious day when I produced this VAST Ultra High-Resolution Image. The trail I was on passed by an area of moss and moisture on stone walls that I thought looked quite interesting. I always think in terms of, “Would I want this imagery hanging over my couch?” and the answer here was an emphatic, “Yes!”

Title Origin: The title “Mountain Tears” can be interpreted a couple ways, I guess. But due to my completely enjoying the hike, the fantastic day that it was, and are you ready for this, those of you who may be familiar with the area … there were no mosquitoes! Unfortunately, with water, often comes mosquitoes. So, my interpretation of “Mountain Tears” is that these were not tears of sadness, but tears of immense joy. Especially for the no mosquitos part.

Thanks ... and thanks again,

David David

Printed onto heavyweight, 100% acid-free fine art canvas to preserve color-accuracy and longevity
Created using materials and methods that exceed the rigorous technical standards required to achieve the prized "giclée" industry rating
Designed to meet the most demanding standards for color-permanence set by leading museums

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.
