Tasman Ice captures the quiet, glacial stillness of the Tasman Lake as floating ice drifts in the cold morning light. The scene is stripped back to its essentials — pale water, fractured ice, and the muted weight of the surrounding mountains. It’s a landscape shaped by time rather than weather, where everything feels slow, heavy, and deliberate. The photograph holds that sense of scale and solitude without forcing it, inviting the viewer to pause and take in the quiet work of the glacier.
Available in A3, A2, and A1.
Note: Each size is individually cropped as images do not fill or bleed to paper edge.
Location: Tasman Glacier, New Zealand
The snow was getting heavy as walked down to the glacier lake. The camera struggled to focus through all that snow; manual focus, crouching low and then get the shot. Another hour later, frozen but happy we were back at fire-side. Back in the digital darkroom, a narrow crop seemed best. Yes, those colours are real!
This image looks stunning at A1 size, either frame with the white space as shown or use a custom panoramic framing.
Each image is printed on Smooth Cotton Rag (310gsm, 100% cotton) — conservation‑grade fine art paper.
Smooth Cotton Rag is mould‑made from pure cotton fibres, giving it a velvety matte surface that holds pigment in a way that preserves extremely fine detail and subtle tonal transitions. Because it contains no optical brighteners and uses archival pigment inks, the print becomes a conservation‑quality giclée designed to last for decades without yellowing or fading. This paper excels at soft gradients, atmospheric scenes, and images where texture, shadow separation, and tonal nuance matter. It’s the choice for museum‑grade work, limited editions, and collectors who value craftsmanship and longevity.
Key qualities:
100% cotton, mould‑made, OBA‑free
Exceptional detail and tonal accuracy
Matte, tactile surface ideal for fine art
True conservation quality and long-term stability
Best for limited editions, gallery work, and premium framing
