Alleys & Ruins no. 87, Play (2006, Chicago, IL, 12am)
At the end of a frustrating night, having found nothing to shoot in Chicago, of all places, I drive by this narrow alley and stop. I don't expect a good shot, but I need to shoot something, and there's a little something here to work with. Its not until I'm making a long exposure that I pull out my lights and start imagining. I put a blue gel on the flash and quickly slip behind the dumpster for two bursts of light. I then return to the camera and with time running out, I realize the last thing missing is one more burst of light. I pull out a flashlight, which I know will create a beautiful warm glow on the red paint and spot it on the dumpster. The night is suddenly looking good.

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
