About the Photo
The morning I shot this was probably the only good weather we had in France. I got up before dawn to find some place to shoot in Chamonix. I knew the clouds would probably light up above Mont Blanc and Glacier des Bossons if I could find a good place to shoot. The town was still and quiet with the exceptions of a few cars on the roads. Having trouble finding a good location to shoot, I looked up and saw how beautiful the alpineglow was on the slopes of Mont Blanc and just decided to shoot right in the middle of town. Part of the Mont Blanc massive, the Aiguille du Midi spires are the jagged peaks in the right of the photo. In 20 minutes, the Telepharique de l'Aiguille du Midi cable car will take you from the Chamonix valley floor, up to Plan de l'Aiguille and then on to the highest point at 3,842 meters above sea level. You can then ride another cable car across Glacier du Geant to Pointe Helbronner in Italy and down to Courmayeur in the Aosta Valley on the other side of the Mont Blanc massive. The Chamonix cable car holds the record of highest vertical ascent via cable car in the world.

Fine Art Print Styles
I offer a number of print styles for my fine art nature photography prints. Below are the different styles you can choose from as you consider your art purchase. All formats with the exception of archival paper prints come ready to hang as is without any need for framing. However, optional external framing can be added if desired. Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have regarding these print styles. For more detailed information on my print styles, please visit my fine art prints page.
Acrylic Prints (Ready to Hang)
If you’re looking for luxury and quality, then choosing arcylic for your artwork will certainly make it stand out! Details from the image emerge from the acrylic in an almost HD-like appearance due due to the transparency layer that is infused with iridium particles and is encapsulated in a layer suspended between the white poly surface and Acrylic. I also offer upgrades to TruLife acrylic and both Lumachrome and Ultra HD acrylic papers.. The final product is finished with a recessed float mount that allows for easy hanging without the need of an external frame creating a modern gallery look that is perfect for any home or office. Additionally, Italian hand-made ROMA frames can be added to any acrylic piece.
Chromaluxe Metal Prints (Ready to Hang)
Using a method called dye sublimation, Chromaluxe is my choice for metal prints. Chromaluxe metal prints are created by taking an archival fine art print and infusing it into an aluminum sheet, creating a much more durable and visually stunning product than printing directly to aluminum like other metal print methods. Surprisingly light-weight, Chromaluxe metal prints are resistant to scratching while having that shiny, high gloss look that makes an image pop! Larson Juhl and box framed Chromaluxe metal prints are available upon request.
Arcival Canvas Prints (Ready to Hang)
Created with 8 color oil based inks, these giclee canvas prints are on another level compared to other canvas prints you might have seen. Many canvas prints have a lack of sharpness, but these canvas prints are some of the highest resolution, sharpest, most vibrant canvas prints possible.
Frames (Ready to Hang)
While all of my mounted print styles come ready to hang without the need of an external frame, sometimes collectors want that extra touch of elegance. For that reason, I offer ROMA frames on all of my acrylic, metal and canvas prints. Plaque mount prints can also be framed with Larson Juhl frames. Standard styles include the Tabacchino line, but other ROMA lines are available on request.
