Valley Of Fire Moonrise
I’m a planner. I like to think that most of my shots are the result of careful research, scouting the area, and planning. And truth is, a lot of them wind up just that way.
However, sometimes you just get lucky!
This was taken one January evening in Valley Of Fire State Park in Nevada. I was actually heading to another spot to try and take advantage of the cool colors happening in the sky, when I saw the moon peeking over the ridge in the photo. So, I quickly turned the car around and found a place to park – and got this shot.
As we were leaving, I mentioned to my Dad that, you know, this was actually pretty lucky. Only ONCE a month does the moonrise as the sunsets (day of the full moon only), and only ONCE a year does it appear exactly in this spot.
Funny thing was, I didn’t even know there was a full moon that day! This shot taught me to ALWAYS check the lunar schedule when I’m heading out!
Yup, sometimes dumb luck is your best bud!
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!
