The Rainbow Mountains
264 MEGAPIXEL VAST PHOTO
Ketchum, Idaho
Ketchum, Idaho
Idaho is home to some of the most dramatic, unexplored scenes of the mountain West. When planning my travel, I'm often drawn to both the idea of dramatic scenery -- but, more importantly, the ability to leave a mark on a place that hasn't been photographed as much.
We had only a week to explore this gorgeous state, but I hope to return in the coming years for more. I was amazed to find such intense fall colors at the foot of endless vertical peaks. We took a few backpacking trips, climbed the tallest mountain in Idaho, and explored remote backroads for a few nights.
Of all the awe-inspiring scenes we stumbled upon, I think this one might be my favorite. This scene is nestled in the mountains above the beloved ski resorts of Ketchum and Sun Valley, near the Sawtooth range.
We had perfect weather during our trip; clear skies and warm days for backpacking and climbing, then a storm dusted the peaks and brought dramatic clouds for the final few days. It was every bit as spectacular as the classic scenes we experienced in Colorado a few weeks later -- but without the crowds. The uniqueness of this scene wasn't the only special thing about it, but it certainly helped. You would be hard-pressed to find other high-quality landscape images of these peaks, and at this VAST resolution there may well be none. I hope you enjoy the image, and consider owning a limited-edition print of this stunning fall scene!

Print only
Our photographic prints are created using a specialty, large-format fine art printer designed to produce archival, museum-grade prints. They are true "chromogenic" prints: light-sensitive paper exposed in a darkroom using state-of-the-art lasers to produce the sharpest possible image. Click on the icons below to learn more or click here to explore further.
Our photographic prints are available in one of two finishes: glossy and lustre. Glossy prints have a rich, silky saturation and are great for environments where the lighting and reflections have been carefully thought through. Lustre prints have a bright, sparkle-like finish that diffuses reflections and are therefore more versatile for environments where the lighting and reflections are less under your control.
Your print comes with two certificates of authenticity hand-signed by the artist and the printmaker: one that you will affix to the finished piece and one that remains standalone. Additionally, your print's provenance is tracked and verified using state-of-the-art digital technology. Learn more.
Acrylic glass display
Our acrylic glass displays are ready-to-hang works of art that contain one of our photographic prints sealed between flame-polished acrylic glass and an aluminum backing. A hidden mounting brace on the rear causes the display to gracefully "float" off the wall for a sleek, modern frameless look that complements nearly any decor style.
