Grand Lightning
Grand Canyon, Arizona
Limited Edition of 200
A thunderstorm on the rim of the Grand Canyon just before sunset. The wind was whipping through the Canyon, sheets of rain were cutting in and between the canyons walls above the great Colorado river. I'd been warned about lightning on the South Rim of the Canyon - extremely dangerous and unpredictable. But I just couldn't pass up this opportunity! With a rain jacket covering my camera, and a long focus on the setting sun, I snapped picture after picture hoping to get just one with a lightning strike. Finally I did - and perfectly framed by the setting sun. I couldn't have hoped for more dramatic clouds, sheets of rain moving in to the frame, or the rays of the sun cutting through the canyon. This is Mother Nature as her most powerful. Photo © copyright by Ted Davis.

Acrylic Glass Mounted Print, Ready to Hang
This is the premier presentation system for bringing detail, color and tonal range to life in a way that traditional photo framing cannot. In this process the face of the image is mounted to a 1/4" crystal clear acrylic, creating the depth and bold color gamut that is so compelling. An Aluminum subframe is then bonded to the back of the image, giving the feeling of a floating image. Your Acrylic Glass Mounted Print comes ready to hang with all the necessary hardware. (more info)
