Artwork Story

The bell of a Pacific sea nettle fills the frame from below, shot looking up through warm amber into deep blue. The translucent dome catches light from inside itself, like something lit from a source you can't quite locate. Trailing edges dissolve into the background without a hard line.

Shipping & Production

Every order is produced on demand through Gelato’s global print network, meaning your piece is made near you, not shipped across an ocean.

Most orders arrive within 3–7 business days. You’ll receive tracking once your order ships. If anything arrives damaged, reach out and it will be made right.

How I make them

Each photo is unique, with its own placement of items, platter spin rate, charge time, variable focus, and exposure. Experimentation, and subsequent obsessive repetition, has led to some unexpected and beautiful combinations. Not a bad combo.

For the technical end of things, I use a Nikon Z8 to capture these images. The resolution is set to maximum, so I get a 45.7 megapixel RAW file straight out of camera, shot with a NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/2.8 S. From there, I edit in Lightroom and apply its Super Resolution on each file, which brings the final image up to roughly 11,000 x 11,000 pixels at around 46 MB. That's a little over 119 megapixels, so more than enough to print these large. For printing, I deliver vibrant 16-bit sRGB TIF files that range in size from 100-950 mb.
