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

If like me, you grew up living on the high prairies, you have probably experienced the magical moments that occur the last 10 minutes before sunset. The air cools, the wind calms and a special silence puts a hush on the day's activities. For me as a teenager being alone somewhere out in the prairie was a time that I first began to connect with my Maker.

I have always wanted to capture one of those moments in a photo and this one I did at Ft. Robinson, NE comes the closest I have done to date of achieving that goal. I shoot this in the last few minutes before the sun sat on July 3, 2022. A herd of Longhorn steers peacefully graze in the distance along with a few Pronghorns. Horses also are grazing, resting from a days work. The sun's golden light illuminates the prairie grasses with a golden hue. A Meadow Lark sits on a fence post singing praises to the Lord.

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.
