"Strike"
Amarillo, Texas - While driving through Texas, on our way to an arts festival, we were met with some intense thunderstorms and incredible looking dark skies. The freeways were partially flooding, so we pulled off and started looking for subjects to photograph under the intense skies. Gabby and I spent almost three hours in ankle deep mud trying to catch a shot of the lightning with these foreground rows of crops. I was shooting 30sec exposures, with a 2sec timer between shots, and somehow, the lightning would only strike during the 2sec between each exposure-- pesky little things! The sky was flashing like crazy, but it took almost three hours of shooting to catch a single bolt.
Chromaluxe Metal Prints: These prints represent a new medium in photographic printing. Using a specialty process, we sublimate ink directly into a sheet of light reflective Chromaluxe aluminum. Due to the luminescence of the metal surface, the finished product has a brightness, vibrancy, and a clarity to it that cannot be rivaled with any other printing technique. Chromaluxe prints are so luminous, that they almost appear backlit. In addition to the striking finish, metal prints are guaranteed to last for a century without noticeable fading, are scratch resistant, waterproof, and all come with sleek aluminum hanging hardware on the back of the print for seamless hanging. The final piece will hang an inch and a half away from the wall. Chromaluxe prints represent the best quality prints in the industry and are the perfect modern art piece for any home.
Paper Prints: All of our paper prints are printed onto Kodak archival papers. This type of print requires matting and framing before it is ready to be hung.
Finishes: All of our paper prints come on Kodak Metallic fine art papers. Our Chromaluxe metal prints, however, come on two different finishes. Our recommended finish is on the high gloss Chromaluxe. The high gloss will have incredible contrast and depth, however it is prone to reflections if hung directly across from a window. Due to this, we also offer our Chromaluxe prints on a matte finish. The matte finish will have slightly less contrast that the high gloss, but will have zero reflections, and is recommended for areas where windows will cause reflections.
