Zion National Park is a captivating oasis of natural beauty nestled in the southwestern United States. It encompasses a vast expanse of diverse ecosystems, dramatic canyons, towering cliffs, and awe-inspiring rock formations. Recognized for its striking red and orange sandstone cliffs, Zion has become a cherished destination for nature enthusiasts, hikers, and photographers alike.

One of the most iconic landmarks within Zion National Park is the Towers of the Virgin. These majestic sandstone formations, with their soaring heights and intricate geological features, serve as a testament to the incredible forces of nature that have shaped the landscape over countless millennia. Standing proudly against the backdrop of a cerulean sky, the Towers of the Virgin command attention and evoke a sense of wonder and reverence.

This captivating VAST photograph captures the awe-inspiring beauty of the Towers of the Virgin, standing tall and majestic in the heart of Zion National Park during the winter season. Nature has transformed this iconic landmark into a winter wonderland, as the mountains are adorned with a fresh blanket of pristine, glistening snow.

The photo was taken just moments after a recent snowfall, capturing the pure essence of the winter landscape. The fresh snow delicately clings to the towering peaks, emphasizing the remarkable geological formations that have been shaped over millions of years. The interplay of light and shadow, cast by the gentle winter sun, adds depth and dimension to the photograph, enhancing its dramatic appeal.

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.
