Which size is right for your space?
When in doubt, go bigger than you think. The art, including any frame, should fill about ⅔ the width of the furniture beneath it. Sizes listed are the photograph itself; framed paper prints, with a 2" mat and frame, are about 3–5" larger in each direction.

Framed prints arrive ready to hang
Framed paper prints are matted with a 2" white mat and protected by non-glare acrylic, so the image stays clear without reflections from windows or lights. Acrylic is lighter and safer to ship than glass, and every framed print arrives with hanging hardware already attached.
MetalPrints with a float mount or frame also arrive ready to hang.

About this photograph
Monument Valley's iconic buttes—the Mittens and Merrick Butte—photographed from an elevated rocky viewpoint work particularly well in black and white. Removing color emphasizes what makes these formations compelling: their massive sculptural forms, the play of light across striated sandstone surfaces, the stark contrast between dark buttes and bright desert sky.
Converting to monochrome simplifies the scene to essential elements—form, light, shadow, texture. The Navajo sandstone's warm reds and oranges that dominate color photographs become a range of grays that reveal geological layering and erosion patterns more clearly. The contrast between shadowed rock faces and sunlit surfaces defines the buttes' three-dimensional form without color's distraction.
Black and white suits Monument Valley's graphic quality: massive vertical forms rising from horizontal desert plain, dramatic skies, severe shadows. The monochrome treatment connects to the classic mid-century photography tradition of this landscape while emphasizing timeless geological processes over contemporary color tourism imagery.
Monochrome conversion emphasizes Monument Valley's sculptural forms and dramatic tonal contrast over familiar color palette.

About Dave
I create landscape photography for contemporary interiors where visual quality matters. My focus is dramatic environments—deserts, coastlines, forests, ancient architecture, night skies—photographed with deliberate composition and attention to craft. I'm selective about what I show. This collection represents a small percentage of what I shoot—work chosen for compositional strength and the ability to reward sustained viewing. These are images designed to live on your walls for years, not months.
