Slot Canyon | Page, Arizona
Human built cathedrals are always majestic and awe-inspiring. The one you see above has naturally occurred in Antelope slot canyon near Page, Arizona. I find this water-caved chamber as inspiring (if not more) as something created by people. The gentle shapes of the sandstone, the ever changing colors, and the mellow light with a variety of hues, are truly captivating. All of this beauty draws landscape nature photographers year after year, who aspire to capture a masterpiece.
One reason why abstract fine art can be so beautiful here, is the blend of gentle shapes and light offered by this Arizona slot canyon. These marvelous sandstone walls have been carved and shaped over time. Sandstone is naturally a very porous rock which allows strong water flow, such as a flash flood, to sculpt it. The final result usually ends up being dazzling stone walls with smooth lines and textures resembling waves. I believe that the water’s work truly creates striking magic out of sandstone.
These gorgeous textures and shapes are tremendously enhanced by the tender light coming from above. There are several reasons for that. First, even on a sunny Arizona day, little light penetrates the slot canyon’s ceiling openings. This causes a gentle illumination of the canyon walls, which is a big advantage when taking a picture. Second, slot canyons are usually deep and there is less light on the bottom, than towards the ceiling. This creates a gradient casting of light which causes the sandstone walls to appear in different color hues. Third, because of the constant changing of wall shapes natural contrasts occur, creating everlasting beauty.
What a special experience it is to visit a slot canyon in Arizona! It is both humbling and awe-inspiring. These canyons are like nature’s art galleries, hidden inside the earth. One can walk by on the outside and not even know that mesmerizing charm is located just yards away. Slot canyons in Arizona, Utah, and everywhere on Earth are a true natural treasure.
This is the absolute highest luxury, museum quality product in fine art printmaking on the market today. Acrylic prints boast a tremendous range of vivid and bright colors, incredible sharpness and clarity, and an anti-reflective acrylic surface. Put together, these qualities result in an almost 3D looking showpiece, which immediately captivates and impresses the viewer. TruLife® acrylic prints are a fully finished wall art product, ready to be hung on your wall.
Lumachrome acrylic fine art prints reflect light with amazing luminescence due to the Iridium metal particles used in the print inks. Because of this, these museum quality prints appear as if they are lit from behind. In addition, the colors are amazingly vibrant and well saturated, while the dark areas maintain great detail. Furthermore, I use the anti-reflection, scratch resistant, and UV protective TruLife® acrylic as a standard on my limited edition prints.
Metal prints are a paperless fine art photographic product. The inks are directly infused and sealed onto an aluminum sheet, in order to produce this gallery quality, luxury artwork. ChromaLuxe metal prints result in a stunning, high-gloss fine art image, with bright and saturated colors. Metal prints have incredible image quality, archival properties, and physical durability.
Research has shown that ChromaLuxe metal prints will outlast, by three times, silver-halide photographic paper prints. Besides, metal prints are a remarkable high definition product, delivering high quality at a slightly lower price, compared to acrylic prints.
Large format print sizes with great quality are available for your interior. As a landscape nature photographer, I pride myself on being able to produce huge prints with sharpness and detail. Although prints are available in custom sizes, my typical dimensions are: PANORAMIC – 20×60, 30×90, 40×120 and STANDARD – 30×45, 40×60, 48×72. You can learn the difference between panoramic and standard prints on my print sizes page. There you will also find visualization tools to help you see how different size large format prints fit inside a home decor.
