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
Bar Harbor's lobster shacks often decorate their exteriors with retired lobster buoys, creating these dense colorful displays that serve both as advertising and folk art. Each buoy's paint pattern originally identified a specific lobsterman's traps—registered color combinations that are unique identifiers on the water.
The visual impact comes from the sheer density and variety: dozens of buoys in different color schemes creating an almost overwhelming palette against the weathered wood siding. What could be visual chaos works because of the repetition of form—they're all buoys, all roughly the same size and shape, so the variety in color patterns creates interest without disorder.
These displays are distinctly Maine coastal—you won't find them inland or in other regions. They signal "authentic lobster shack" to tourists while celebrating the local fishing heritage. The weathered buoys show genuine use: faded paint, dings, saltwater staining—the patina of actual working gear retired from the water.
Dense buoy display creates colorful folk art celebrating Bar Harbor's lobstering heritage and working waterfront identity.

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.
