Alleys & Ruins no. 111, Intersect (2008, St. Paul, MN, 11pm)
My blog post the night of this shot:
Its 2:30am in Minneapolis. I’m in my van parked on a street, lying on the bed I’ve made for myself in the back. A short while ago I finished shooting in downtown St Paul, the older of the twin cities. I met several guys today who took me on a tour of the city’s urban rot. All three are rappers who also record their own beats. They really understood what I was looking for, so I’m very happy with tonight’s shoot, and I have at least one great location lined up for tomorrow night.
My challenge now is to NOT stay up for several more hours… I have a long day tomorrow, followed by another long night of shooting, followed by an even longer day and night on Sunday. But I’m pumped by caffeine and by the excitement of the shoot. Okay… I’m going to shut this computer off and close my eyes… but who am I kidding… I’m wide awake…

FINISHES
Our unique and vibrant photographs will add depth and stunning color to any home, office or public space. They are offered in two main finishes1. Metal float mount
Our Metal prints have a magical luminescence. Their vibrant, saturated colors jump off the wall, and will last for generations. They are created by infusing dyes directly into specially coated aluminum sheets making them incredibly durable and scratch resistant. The finished piece is float mounted, so they float one inch off the wall.2. Archival prints
We print on premium quality Sunset eSatin paper, using archival Ultrachrome inks for incredible endurance and color saturation. These prints will last for generations.11x14 and 16x20 sizes are available with or without a window mat. If you are unsure which is best for you, feel free to contact us. Most clients seem to purchase without the window mat.
Prints larger than 16X20 are available as full-frame prints, without a white border or a window mat. If you want a white border, just let us know!
CUSTOM SIZES
If you have a specific size requirement, that's no problem! Maybe the perfect size is somewhere between two of the sizes in the drop down list. In that case, the price would be the proportional difference. We’ve also stretched and cropped pieces for customers to fit precise spaces. Give us the dimensions and we'll email you image options for you to choose from. There is no charge for the extra labor in custom sizing pieces.LIMITED EDITIONS
