The Story Behind “Sunset Sailing”
I had traveled down to Newport to photograph a lighthouse, carefully composing the scene in front of me. But then, I noticed a lone Adirondack chair someone had placed on the rocks behind me. Something about it drew my eye.
Just as I started adjusting my composition, a sailboat showed up on the horizon. I abandoned the lighthouse entirely and framed the chair with the incoming boat instead, hoping it held its course. It did, and I got a few good frames before it sailed on down the bay.
Printed as museum-quality fine art. Right place, right time, and a chair that had no business making the shot better – but it did.
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 museum-grade 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.
Shipping & Handling
Every print is made to order and packed with care.
