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

This stunning panoramic image showcases the magnificent cityscape of Lower Manhattan, New York. Taken during twilight, the image captures the city's architectural brilliance as its towering skyscrapers begin to illuminate, creating a striking contrast with the fading light in the background. The famous high-rises, adorned with glowing windows, stand proudly against the night sky, symbolizing the heartbeat of New York’s financial and commercial district. The clear, meticulously captured lines of the city’s skyline reveal a sense of grandeur and urban elegance, while the grid-like streets below show the movement and rhythm of the bustling metropolis.

The sepia tone used in the image adds a vintage charm to the modern structures, offering a timeless feel to this highly dynamic setting. The image subtly draws attention to the unique blend of historic and contemporary architecture that makes Lower Manhattan so iconic. The view also extends toward the Hudson River on the right, where the skyline meets the water, adding an element of serenity to the otherwise bustling urban scene. The balance between the man-made and natural elements in the photo serves to highlight the city's relationship with its waterways.

The picture encapsulates the energy and vibrancy of New York, a city known for never sleeping. The illuminated buildings and streets convey the relentless pace of life here, even as the day transitions into night. The wide perspective grants the viewer a sense of immersion, making them feel as if they are standing atop a high vantage point, absorbing the very essence of Manhattan. This image is not just a celebration of architectural excellence, but also a testament to the indomitable spirit of New York City.

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.
