Sunset Camping in Sierra Snowscape

197 MEGAPIXEL VAST PHOTO
Upper Basin, Kings Canyon National Park, California

Each day, for 10 days straight, we traveled on skis up and over endless high mountain passes as we worked our way south through the eastern Sierra Range. Each night, we dropped our packs and built camp. Most camps included digging a 6’x6’ hole in the snow, over which we would pitch a simple tarp shelter, sleeping with our pads directly on the snow.

On two fortunate occasions, we happened upon islands of dry land in the sea of endless snow, where we were able to spread out our gear to dry, and enjoy the comfort of sleeping on a surface which was neither particularly cold or damp.

While the days were hot, as the bright white snow reflected the Southern California sun to warm us from both above and below, the nights were clear and sharply cold. As such, we stayed out only long enough to watch the sun drop behind the peaks before retreating to the relative warmth of our shelter and sleeping bags. Brief but sublime were these moments between the heat of day and cold of night.

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.
