Portrait photo of Scott Dimond, a VAST photographer artist creating very high resolution fine art photos of abandonment, landscapes, and nature
Scott Dimond

It all started with a lightning strike. That is how the summer 2017 Kenow wildfire in Southeastern British Columbia started. The Kenow fire had shown no signs of moving east up the Akamina Valley and risking Waterton Lakes National Park but that all changed quickly. In just a few days, the fire moved into the park and destroyed over 38,100 hectares.

The blacked burnt bark on most of the trees in the park has fallen off, leaving white sentinels as far as the eye can see. But there are sure signs of the forest’s slow recovery. The undergrow is springing to life and the wildflowers are blooming.

This image was captured on photographic medium-format film (MFF) using a dedicated panoramic film camera with a negative size of 6 x 17 cm (2.32 x 6.69 inches) that is part of my Intentional Camera Movement on Medium-Format Film (ICMMFF) project. But before I started experimenting with camera movement, I first captured this static scene. You can see the resultant abstract versions of this scene and read about the ICMMFF project by clicking on the other photos shown below.

Canvas print

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.

Produced using a specialty, large-format fine art printer operating at 300ppi resolution—the gold standard for sharpness
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
Handmade by award-winning master printmakers with over 4 decades of experience
Optionally accompanied by your choice of elegant floater frame available in a variety of trims

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.
