- 1st Place Landscape Challenge # 6 Dpreview.com (against 94 total contest entries)
This was a complete failure on my part. Well, at least that’s what I thought at the time.
The sky was bland and clear for several hours up to sunset and I figured landscapes were a no-go and hey, elk need their photos taken too, right?
Well, we noticed the sky starting to get interesting and made a bee-line towards Bear Lake. I was literally running down the path setting my tripod up as I went!
I actually wanted to shoot this from the famous boulder field behind me, but there wasn’t any time – heck , I barely had time to mount the camera to the sticks and pop this one off!
I spent the hike back kicking myself for not seeing this coming and getting to the “better” spot in time.
Funny, when I got back and actually LOOKED at the photo, I think it may have been a blessing in disguise.
About Our Prints....
We currently sell both individual prints and completely framed and ready-to-hang prints. Our framed prints are professionally matted, mounted and framed.
Here's a sample of our basic mat and frame:
Framed prints purchased though us are generally a better deal than taking a loose print to your local frame shop since we have a pretty significant discount that we pass along to you. When you receive your print in the mail, it's ready to hang and even comes with the hardware for doing so.
Please note that if you'd like another type of print (canvas for example) or another frame style, we can certainly accommodate you, just use the contact us page and we'll customize the artwork to make it perfect for your home.
Warranty
Our framed prints are guaranteed for as long as you own them against wear, fading, or deterioration. Loose prints are also guaranteed for as long as you own them provided you have them framed under glass using archival materials. We want you to LOVE your prints, so we offer a refund as long as the print or framed print is returned in like new condition within 30 days.
Signature
All prints are signed in one of the lower corners (usually the right hand corner).
Delivery
Delivery time varies and depends on a number of factors, but we always strive to get your prints delivered to you as quickly as possible. I personally inspect each and every piece before it leaves our building. If I'm out of town taking more photos, it can cause a delay, but a good rule of thumb is that a loose print will ship within 2 weeks and a framed print within 3 weeks. That time is significantly shorter if I'm in town at the time the order is placed. If you need a print done by a certain date, you can contact me and I'll be happy to give you an estimated delivery date.
Discounts
We are now offering quantity discounts if you are interested in two or more pieces. Simply contact me with the sizes and names of the images you are interested in and I will be happy to get you a quote. The more pieces you order, the better the discount.
Thanks for your interest!

This Photo is so awesome…makes you feel at peace. I enjoy the write you do along with the photos. You are such a Great writer!
So far, this is my favorite of all your photos…. It WAS a real blessing in disguise! It makes me feel like I want to slip into a canoe, and quietly paddle out there to imerse myself in that bath of colors. The very essense of tranquility.
((hugs))
p.s. Now, when might you be coming out to Oregon to photograph my state? We have lots of woods-&-water features for you – including a zillion waterfalls, (like the Silver Creek Falls State Park, that I already told you about, & the mighty Rogue River, where I live…Being at a place as beautiful as this can cure your every hurt
Awesome Photo!
