I work to make the best possible custom prints. All of my print preparation is done in-house and I personally inspect every print before I sign and ship the prints. Your satisfaction is guaranteed.
Ptarmigan and Willow Bud
Arapaho National Forest, Colorado
White-tailed ptarmigan spend their entire lifecycle in the harsh alpine environment above timberline, foraging on willow buds almost exclusively and thriving - even gaining weight through winter. These remarkable birds will also tunnel into snow as an insulation strategy. In the era of progressive climate change, ptarmigan need snow for camouflage and willow for continued survival. I photographed this bird rapidly devouring tiny willow buds in an alpine basin at the top of the Colorado River watershed around 11.500 feet.

The finished picture has a clean look and the matte laminate greatly reduces glare, allowing you to see the image. Duraplaq mounted prints can be cleaned with your normal glass cleaning products and are extremely durable.
