Babcock Grist Mill Photography Print & West Virginia Wall Art
Resting along the boulder-strewn waters of Glade Creek in Fayette County, West Virginia, the historic Grist Mill at Babcock State Park is one of the most beloved and photographed landmarks in the Appalachian Mountains. Reconstructed in 1976 using parts from historic mills across the state, this fully operational water-powered mill stands tall amongst the beautiful fall colors.
I captured this image during the height of autumn, after a nice rainfall left the creek swollen and rushing. Above the water, this fine art photograph highlights the rustic wooden siding, hand-built stone foundation and iconic waterwheel framed by a vibrant forest canopy of fiery orange and even red maples along with golden birches. The smooth, silky movement of Glade Creek continues rushing across the foreground rocks and draws you straight into a peaceful Appalachian mountain evening.
This piece was decided to bring the warm and nostalgic atmosphere of Appalachian autumn into your home, office or other wall. Available as a museum-quality fine art print in HD acrylic or sleek metal, both mediums come ready to hang frameless or can be paired with handcrafted ROMA frames. It is also available as an archival fine art paper print, delivered unframed and ready for custom framing.

Fine Art Print Styles
I offer a number of print styles for my fine art nature photography prints. Below are the different styles you can choose from as you consider your art purchase. All formats with the exception of archival paper prints come ready to hang as is without any need for framing. However, optional external framing can be added if desired. Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have regarding these print styles. For more detailed information on my print styles, please visit my fine art prints page.
Signature Series Acrylic Prints (Ready to Hang)
If you’re looking for luxury and quality, then choosing arcylic for your artwork will certainly make it stand out! Details from the image emerge from the acrylic in an almost HD-like appearance due due to the transparency layer that is infused with iridium particles and is encapsulated in a layer suspended between the white poly surface and Acrylic. I also offer upgrades to TruLife acrylic and both Lumachrome and Ultra HD acrylic papers.. The final product is finished with a recessed float mount that allows for easy hanging without the need of an external frame creating a modern gallery look that is perfect for any home or office. Additionally, Italian hand-made ROMA frames can be added to any acrylic piece.
Signature Series Chromaluxe Metal Prints (Ready to Hang)
Using a method called dye sublimation, Chromaluxe is my choice for metal prints. Chromaluxe metal prints are created by taking an archival fine art print and infusing it into an aluminum sheet, creating a much more durable and visually stunning product than printing directly to aluminum like other metal print methods. Surprisingly light-weight, Chromaluxe metal prints are resistant to scratching while having that shiny, high gloss look that makes an image pop! Larson Juhl and box framed Chromaluxe metal prints are available upon request.
Signature Series Frames (Ready to Hang)
While all of my mounted print styles come ready to hang without the need of an external frame, sometimes collectors want that extra touch of elegance. For that reason, I offer ROMA frames on all of my acrylic, metal and canvas prints. Plaque mount prints can also be framed with Larson Juhl frames. Standard styles include the Tabacchino line, but other ROMA lines are available on request.
