A Quiet Sunrise Walk at Smathers Beach in Key West

I photographed this pastel sunrise while walking one of the quiet beach access paths at Smathers Beach as dreamy sunrise light softened the sky over Key West. The air was fairly calm that morning, leaving the palm trees just barely swaying as they framed the path leading toward the shoreline.

The soft pinks and muted blues drifted through the clouds rather than flaring with color creating a scene with a gentle, unhurried mood. A sailboat rests far out on the horizon, adding to the laid-back feeling of sunrise in Key West.

This image is all about that moment of arrival and that feeling of stepping out toward the beach before the day fully begins. It’s intentionally calm and understated with the kind of sunrise that invites you forward rather than demanding attention.

When printed large, the leading path draws the viewer into the scene. This makes the photograph especially effective in spaces meant for rest and quiet reflection.

Print Size and Display Recommendations

This is a photograph benefits from space. A wider print size will allow the soft transitions in the sky and the natural framing of the palms to breathe, especially in sizes 30 inches wide and above.

Large metal and acrylic prints will bring a subtle depth to the sky without overpowering the calm feel of the scene. This piece would work particularly well in a bedroom, entryway or relaxed living spaces where natural light and quiet moments already exist.

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.

HD Acrylic Prints

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.

Chromaluxe Metal Prints

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.

Archival Canvas Prints

Arcival Canvas Prints (Ready to Hang)

Created with 8 color oil based inks, these giclee canvas prints are on another level compared to other canvas prints you might have seen. Many canvas prints have a lack of sharpness, but these canvas prints are some of the highest resolution, sharpest, most vibrant canvas prints possible.

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.
