What Are You Lookin' At?

Yarra Valley, Victoria. If I told you I managed to get 30cm away from this mother and her joey because of my skills in dealing with wildlife, I’d be lying. It’s true the camera was only inches away but I wasn’t. I used a painter’s extension pole with the camera rigged on the end so I could stand on the ground and get the camera close without scaring them off. The problem is that because they’re so high and I’m standing directly beneath them it’s hard to see exactly what I’m shooting. I’d set the camera controls, extend the pole and click away using a remote, then I’d scroll through the images and see 20 shots of her left foot. There’s a lot of trial and error involved in this method but when it works it’s worth it.

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.
