Boab, Northern Territory

That white streak of light is a four wheel drive zooming past while I was taking a 30 second exposure. I figured the shot was ruined but, when I was finished shooting for the night, lying in the back of the van sipping a red wine and looking through the images, it turned out to be the best one. Not sure what the driver thought of me as he went past because I was standing off to the right of the tree with my torch and ‘painting’ the tree with light during the exposure so it wouldn’t come out pitch black. Turns out we both did some painting. The location was somewhere in the middle of nowhere and miles from anywhere, which is where you want to be if you want a night sky without any light pollution. Apart from the vehicular kind.

Note: Both paper and canvas prints come rolled in acid free tissue paper inside a heavy-duty mailing tube (signature is required upon delivery).

The standard sized paper prints - A2, A1 and AO - are designed to fit off-the-shelf frame sizes but for custom framing (like the panorama prints which aren't standard sizes), I'd recommend taking them to a professional framer.

The canvas prints are much harder to do yourself so should also be taken to a framer. All the canvas prints have a mirror wrap edge (sometimes called gallery wrap) which means the image appears to continue around the side of the frame but it's actually a copy of the image, as if the image were held against a mirror. This way none of the image is 'lost' around the side, it just looks that way.

If you have any questions about the prints, the images or anything else, I'm always available through the contacts page.
