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
Mono Lake's tufa towers—calcium carbonate formations created by underwater springs mixing with the alkaline lake water—rise dramatically from the shoreline. When water levels are calm, these limestone spires reflect perfectly, creating mirror images that double their visual impact.
Converting to black and white emphasizes the tufas' sculptural quality and textural detail. The porous, irregular surfaces of the calcium carbonate formations show more clearly in monochrome—the holes, ridges, and weathered patterns become the subject rather than the formations' cream or pale gray color. The contrast between the rough, vertical tufa structures and the smooth, reflective water surface works powerfully in black and white.
Calm conditions are essential for clean reflections—any wind disrupts the mirror effect. The challenge is balancing exposure to preserve detail in both the bright tufa formations and their darker reflections while maintaining the tonal range that defines the scene's depth. Monochrome suits Mono Lake's stark, otherworldly character.
Monochrome treatment emphasizes sculptural tufa formations and mirror reflections in Mono Lake's distinctive alkaline landscape.

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.
