Pick a size or material above and the room updates. The sofa is about 10 feet wide, so the sizes are true to the room and to each other.The side table is about 2½ feet wide, so the matted print is true to the room. Pick a bigger size above and it moves to the living room.
About this photograph
This image was created on the East shore of Oʻahu. Waking up in the early hours of the morning, I hiked up this ridge in complete darkness in order to find this vantage point for sunrise. I am particularly fond of this image because of the sweeping nature of the ridge in the foreground blending seamlessly with the beach below, creating an "S" shape. This image is meant to emphasize the flowing nature of life and how unexpected circumstances can work together to create something beautiful. The valley in view is called Kahana Valley and is one of the more well preserved ahupuaʻa on Oʻahu. An "ahapuaʻa" is a sociological and geological land division from mauka to makai (mountain to sea), which typically held all of the resources for a native Hawaiian community to thrive on.
Photographed at The Koʻolau Mountains, Oʻahu.

Metal
Dye-sublimated onto ChromaLuxe aluminum made in the USA. Colors run deep and detail stays sharp, and the surface holds up for years.
Canvas
Printed with archival pigment inks on museum-quality canvas, then gallery-wrapped so it hangs clean without a frame. A soft texture and no glare, good for bright rooms.
Matted print
A smaller, simpler way to bring one of these photographs home. It's printed here on Oʻahu on 275-gram satin photo paper, with rich color and a smooth, scratch-resistant finish. It's set in an acid-free white mat, 11 x 14 on the outside, with a backing board and a clear sleeve to keep it clean. Vertical photos are 8 x 10 and horizontal ones are 8 x 12, and both fit any standard 11 x 14 frame.
Prints ship up to 60 inches on the long side. Larger sizes are pickup on Oʻahu only; get in touch and we'll quote freight.
