Large format printing is something I generally stay away from. The only reason I do is because of how much it costs. Occasionally though, I take a panoramic or some kind of image that just BEGS to be enlarged on someone’s wall.  This is the case with my latest panoramic view of Chicago.

If you’re interested in buying a large format print, hop on over to the Art Gallery page. I’m only offering this at 20” x60” to truly take advantage of the panoramic format and make an impact. As always, you’ll have the choice between a standard high-quality print or the super-high quality metallic print. I’m only selling 3 of these, so don’t hesitate if you’re interested!

I shot this last October while I was downtown for a tradeshow. Ordinarily, I don’t do much post-processing to my photos. I always try to convince people it’s because of my ardent belief in capturing the photo correctly in-camera and that a shooter of my skill only requires minimal editing… The other half (three quarters?) of that view is that I just plain don’t like Photoshop. Certainly, there are necessary tools and tradecraft associated with the program that I just couldn’t live without (unsharp mask, anyone?), but I’m a huge fan of visualizing something in reality and capturing it… Artistic endeavors like the above are truly a rare foray into unexplored waters, and are usually the product of insomnia & boredom.

In any case, I hope you enjoy the above view of our wonderful city. I’ve got a couple special projects going on this week, and I’m happy to report that I’ll be test-driving a new camera for a few days (Nikon D3X)!
