Derwentwater Sunset Canvas - Walla Crag - Keswick - Lake District Photography

The Image

One of the most intense sunsets I’ve ever had the pleasure of witnessing, seen from Walla Crag which has fantastic views of Derwentwater over your left shoulder and Keswick over your right. I’ve been coming here in the late summer months for many years now as during mid August, this location is swarming with deep vibrant Heather. I think this year, my timing was spot on for peak colour! At first, things didn’t feel like much was going to happen. Driving to location, I had my windscreen wipers on full as the heavens seemed to be working overtime! The forecast was set to clear about an hour before sunset and for once, the forecast couldn’t have been more on the ball! Like clockwork, an hour before sunset the dull and dark clouds parted, revealing a beautiful layer of high cloud. From the moment the sun dipped behind the Western Fells, the sky put on a show of true beauty!

Canvas details
All canvases are hand crafted using high quality European Pine. The image will be printed onto heavyweight canvas, the surface is then laminated for ultimate protection; No cracking, water resistant, cleanable, scratch proof and UV protection of up to 200 years! Only genuine HP Vivera Inks are used at 1440 dpi, producing superb image quality. All canvases come with specialised pre-fitted canvas hangers.

 

Canvas Types

20mm - a great for value option consisting of a 20mm European pine fixed frame that is precision cut, mitred and then underpinned providing a strong robust frame. Although this is a cheaper option, there is no compromise on quality; sometimes the smaller size will suit a situation where simplicity is of the essence!

 

38mm - a more luxurious option suited for those who want the canvas to stand out more and dominate the room! Consisting of a 38mm deep European pine stretcher frame for a high quality contemporary finish, real wood wedged corners for a perfectly tensioned canvas and galvanised staples; taped for a neat appearance and protection of walls.

 

Canvas Edge Finish
There are three options for your edge finish; wrapped, mirrored or mirrored Blur.

 

Wrapped - The image will be 'wrapped' around all edges of the frame; a more aesthetically pleasing finish but will result in a small part of the image being lost.

 

Mirrored - The image will be 'mirrored' at the left, right, top and bottom edges, maintaining the full image on the front of the canvas.

 

Mirrored Blur - the same as mirrored but with a slight blur applied.
