Taughannock Falls

1,886 MEGAPIXEL VAST PHOTO
Trumansburg, New York

Taughannock Falls State Park's namesake waterfall is one of the outstanding natural attractions of the Northeast. Taughannock Falls plunges 215 feet past rocky cliffs that tower nearly 400 feet above the gorge. Gorge and rim trails offer spectacular views from above the falls and from below at the end of the gorge trail. Taughannock Falls State Park is a 750-acre (3.0 km2) state park located in the town of Ulysses in Tompkins County, New York

Streams from the surrounding hillsides would flow into the inter-glacial lakes often at or near their hilltops. As the glaciers retreated, lake levels would drop leaving valleys high above the lake level. These “hanging valleys,” once simple stream beds, now had precipitous waterfalls. The surging water flowed over hard capstone, but underneath was highly erodible shale which often cleaved off in huge chunks. Eventually, the capstone would be undercut so much that it would fall as well and the hanging valley would recede further into the encompassing hillside.

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.

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.
