Evening Light on Fairview Mountain

from $34.00

In the Canadian Rockies, the "finish line" is usually a famous lake or a designated summit. But for those who walk with their eyes open, the most profound moments often happen in the spaces between.

It was late May in Banff, and we were beginning our descent from the Lake Agnes Tea House. The trail was still treacherous in sections, with deep, stubborn snow underfoot - a cold reminder that at this northern latitude, spring is merely a brief intermission before winter returns again. As we wound our way through the dense stands of subalpine fir, the world felt closed-in and quiet.

Then, the trees fractured.

Through a narrow window in the forest, I caught a glimpse of Fairview Mountain. The light was hitting the jagged, snow-streaked face with a surgical precision, highlighting the immense texture of the rock while the rest of the valley remained in shadow. I stopped immediately, ignoring the pull of the trailhead below, and pulled out my camera.

This shot is a reminder that the landscape doesn’t always wait for you at the overlook. Sometimes, the best views are the ones you have to stumble upon - the fleeting, unplanned glimpses that occur when you're willing to look sideways instead of just straight ahead.

Metal Prints

Metal prints are celebrated for their unmatched durability and vibrant color presentation, delivering extraordinary sharpness and detail. The sleek, modern finish enhances the luminosity of each image, making colors pop with a radiant glow. With superior fade resistance, metal prints maintain their brilliance over time, embodying the pinnacle of photographic reproduction.

Each image is first printed to a transfer paper, then infused into Chromaluxe metal by heat and pressure. This process combined with our custom made color profiles give true to life colors and exceptional detail.

Fine Art Glicee Paper Prints

Fine art prints stand out with their exceptional quality, capturing the subtlety of shades and the intricacies of texture, ideal for reproducing artworks and photographs with artistic merit. Their archival inks and heavyweight papers promise longevity and aesthetic appeal, offering a sophisticated, gallery-worthy presentation that honors the creator's vision. All fine art prints require framing. I currently do not offer framing or mat boards for photo prints and fine art prints.

My fine art prints utilize the highest quality archival inks printed onto premium photo paper. This process ensures a sharp and true-to-life image, reflecting both the subtleties and vibrance of the original.

Canvas Prints

A museum-quality canvas ready for display. Using the giclee printing process, archival ink is sprayed onto these fine art canvases and gallery-wrapped. These prints feature subtle fine art texture with ultra-tight corners and sharp color accuracy.

All photos are printed on certified archival quality canvas that is hand-stretched in the USA around a 1.5” wood stretcher frame. Canvas includes a smooth matte finish that eliminates any unwanted glare or reflections. Canvas is a poly-cotton blend that is guaranteed to have a 100+ year display life. With no optical brighterners or synthetic fibers, this is considered the highest quality canvas available in the photo printing industry. Once wrapped, a durable display handware is attached directly to the back of the canvas. Depending on the size, this will either be a sawtooth or wire for hanging.

Recommend using a microfiber towel to remove dust or fingerprints.
