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
The Big Sur coastline south of Carmel offers dramatic rocky shoreline where the Santa Lucia Mountains meet the Pacific. Sunrise at these tide pool areas provides ideal conditions for long exposure photography—soft light, incoming waves, and interesting foreground rocks to anchor the composition.
Using a long exposure smooths the wave motion into that silky effect, transforming the ocean's constant movement into something that appears calm and ethereal. The technique requires careful timing with the wave cycle and a neutral density filter to extend the shutter speed in the growing dawn light. Too short an exposure and you get frozen wave detail; too long and everything blurs into formlessness.
The rocky tide pools in the foreground provide textural contrast against the smoothed water, while the pastel sunrise sky—pinks and soft blues typical of coastal California dawns—adds color without overwhelming the composition. The warm morning light emphasizes the textured surfaces of the wave-worn rocks.
Long exposure technique creates calm atmosphere and emphasizes Big Sur's dramatic rocky coastline at dawn.

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.
