The Story Behind “Milky Way on Cape Cod”
We planned a sunrise shoot at the lighthouse at Race Point, but when we arrived, the darkness revealed a spectacle beyond expectation. The night sky was alive with stars, and the Milky Way stretched across the heavens, visible even to the naked eye. I shifted my focus to the Coast Guard station below it, and this is what I captured instead of the lighthouse. We carried on with the hike and eventually made it to the lighthouse in time for sunrise too.
Printed as fine art. This one’s less about the lighthouse I went out for and more about what showed up instead. We carried on and made it to the lighthouse for sunrise too — that print is Race Point: Waiting for the Light.

Limited Edition Information
An edition of 25, and then it’s closed.
You get a 12×18 inch image printed on 13×19 inch archival paper. I print it myself. Each print is signed, titled and numbered.
The story behind the photograph comes with it, printed on 9×11 fine art paper, along with a Certificate of Authenticity.
Artist’s proofs (AP) are also made. They are numbered and marked AP, and I use them at my discretion.
Open Edition Information
Open Edition prints are made by Blazing Editions, a fine art print studio I’ve worked with for over a decade. I’ve been through their shop and watched how they work. They print to order with archival pigment inks, on paper or metal, and I trust them with my images.
Paper or Metal?
Paper gives you the most detail and the traditional look. Metal is glossy, vivid and tough, and it hangs without a frame.
Both use archival materials and archival pigment inks.
These are fine art prints. Frames are not included.
Which Size?
When in doubt, I’d go a size up.
The Print Size Guide shows how each size looks in a room.
