Namchung Morning
This 151-megapixel VAST photo is one of the highest definition fine art photographs ever created, with a resolution equivalent to 73 full-HD TVs.
It was an epic failure in terms of getting a fire lit or getting my shot, but it was a success in that I knew how to get there again. One month later I was back and carrying a tent to boot, a rarity for me in the hospitable Himalaya. I managed to shake out early and get the shot, in a window of good weather during the early monsoon.

THE HIGHEST RESOLUTION PHOTOGRAPHIC PRINTS EVER CREATED
VAST Prints are fine art photographic paper prints that arrive ready to be mounted and/or framed. They are created using the sharpest photographic printer in commercial use: a very rare specialty printer that formerly printed currency and military surveillance imagery. Learn more
Every VAST Print has two certificates of authenticity hand-signed by the artist and the printmaker: one affixed to the print and one standalone. Additionally, each print is assigned a unique serial number via a permanent hologram seal and recorded in our registry. Its provenance is tracked and verified using state-of-the-art digital blockchain encryption technology.
THE HIGHEST QUALITY PHOTOGRAPHIC DISPLAYS EVER CREATED
VAST Displays are ready-to-hang works of art that contain a VAST Print sealed between flame-polished acrylic glass and an aluminum backing. A hidden brace on the back causes the display to gracefully float off the wall for a sleek, modern frameless look that complements nearly any decor style. Learn more
