A Moon and A Barn Shine On

from $0.00

This is one of the most meaningful photographs I have taken, truly. It is meaningful because of the story behind it. This barn is a historical treasure for the town of Erie and surrounding area. The barn was scheduled for major repairs and the work was to begin in a matter of days or weeks. My goal was to capture a "the way it was" photo of the barn before it's much needed makeover. I knew it would never look the same again. I sought for an idea that was more than just a photo of the barn itself and I sought to the skies for ideas and meaning. I saw there was an astronomical event happening later inteh week as the moon phase was going to be a crescent moon that would be accompanied with other planets. With that news, I snuck onto the property at 2:30 a.m. along with a portable generator for power and set up a makeshift lighting system that would illuminate the barn and silo. I waited patiently for the moon to rise and it was truly a magical moment seeing the moon rise above the silo. Moments like this is what fuels my fire to keep doing what I do. On a good note, I did not get arrested either for trespassing.

  • Great news for you! Shipping within the United States is included in the overall cost of your fine print photograph. There is no additional shipping cost. Once your order is placed, I am notified, and I will monitor it from start to finish communicating with you openly along the way. It takes approximately 2-3 weeks for the printing and delivery of your prints.

  • I offer several print formats for you to print your fine art photography on.  They include canvas, metal, acrylic, and wood.  A description of each is provided below.

    Canvas

    All canvas prints are designed to meet the longevity requirements of art galleries and ensure consistency of shades for up to 200 years old. The prints are made on a Premium Fine Art Matte Canvas (410g/m2) to ensure incredible sharp prints that are durable and remain consistent over time.  Each canvas print comes ready to hang as it includes all of the mounting components on the back of your frame.

    There are three things to choose from when printing your fine art photography on canvas.  They are: Size, Border (wrap or mirror), and finish.  Let me walk you through each of those choices.

    1. Size – Select your size from my Gallery Page.  You have a choice of many standard sizes.  Please note that I can print any of my photos to virtually any size, so you are not limited to the sizes you see on my Gallery Page.  If you have a particular size that you are looking for, just send me a note in my “Contact” Page and I will discuss this with you to ensure you get exactly what you are looking for.  My photos are high quality and high resolution, so they scale very well to extraordinarily large prints! 

    2. Border – The border is how you want the sides of your photo to look.  You can choose to have a “Mirror Image” or a “Wrap Image”.  The mirror image option mirrors what you see on the edge of your fine art photograph around the edge of your canvas print.  This is the most chosen option.  The wrap image option wraps around the edge of your fine art photography around the edge of your canvas print.

    3. Finish - With each canvas print, you can choose between two finishes, a “matte finish” or a “semi-gloss” finish. 

    The “Matte Finish” finish provides a 'Fine Art' look and provides a great color gamut.  The “Semi-gloss” finish provides a richer black color and improved contrast and is also more resistant to scratches. So, if there is a lot of black and darkness in your photo, this might be a good choice to feature the dark aspects of your photo.

    Each canvas print includes the following:

    The frame is made from lightweight and premium grade thick wood which is your gallery.

    Your canvas print is delivered to you ready to hang using a sturdy and professional hanging kit.

    Lastly, each canvas print will have felt pads on the back of your frame to protect your walls.

    Metal 

    Bring your fine art photographs to life in a way that feels almost electric. My metal prints transform light and color into something dynamic—sleek, glossy, and impressively vivid. Each print reflects the world with depth and brilliance, creating a floating effect that seems to glow from within. Built to last for decades, these modern pieces turn your favorite moments into art that shines.  All metal prints are 3mm thick, lightweight, and durable.

    There are two things to choose from when printing your fine art photograph on metal.  They are: Size and finish.  

    1. Size – Select your size from my Gallery Page.  You have a choice of many standard sizes.  Please note that I can print any of my photos to virtually any size, so you are not limited to the sizes you see on my Gallery Page.  If you have a particular size that you are looking for, just send me a note in my “Contact” Page and I will discuss this with you to ensure you get exactly what you are looking for.  My photos are high quality and high resolution, so they scale very well to extraordinarily large prints!

    2. Finish – With each metal print, you can choose between three finishes, “High-Definition Gloss ChromaLuxe”, “Brushed Metal”, or “Smooth White Metal”.  

    The High-Definition Gloss ChromaLuxe finish provides incredible color brilliance, luminous gloss, and true archival permanence.  The Brushed Metal finish features a silvery surface gives your fine art photograph a soft, luminous glow, while the natural metal texture brings warmth and depth to every highlight. The Smooth White Metal finish provides a modern matte aesthetic with striking clarity and depth. The non-reflective surface gently diffuses light, allowing your image’s detail and color to take center stage.

    Wood

    Bring warmth and natural charm to your space with Fine Art Prints on Wood. Printed directly on smooth birch panels with UV-cured inks, these pieces showcase vibrant color and incredible detail while letting the wood’s natural grain and tone shine through. Durable, ready to hang, and beautifully organic, each print tells its story through both image and material.

    There is only one choice to make when printing your fine art photograph on wood, the size.
