Ocean Wave at Desert Island

I photographed this breaking wave on a fall afternoon at Desert Island, one of the barrier islands in the Ria Formosa National Park in Portugal. The tide was coming in with big, thundering waves that filled the air with a thick salt haze and that amazing smell of the ocean. The water was a pale, almost colorless blue, that shifted into sea glass green in the breaking waves, and the filtered sunshine added such a dreamy feel. My favorite everything! 🙂  PRINT DETAILS The image is printed on matte archival cotton rag fine art paper with a 0.5” - 2” white border (depending on image size) and is signed on the border below the image. Print sizes refer to the total paper size, including the border (e.g. a 10x15-inch print has a 9x14-inch image with 0.5-inch borders). The prints are available unframed or framed, and every order is professionally custom printed. FRAMED ART - USA & AUSTRALIA ONLY Framed prints come in a black, white, or natural wood frame with or without a white cotton rag mat. The frames are handmade in the US from top-quality hardwoods and all archival materials. They are custom made to order, with beautiful spline joints and 99% UV-filtering acrylic glass. Depending on print size, the frames have a 1/2" - 1" face and 1 1/2" - 2 1/4" depth. Smaller frames are fitted with D-rings and a wire for hanging; large frames (24x36 inches and up) have a French cleat hanging system. Framed prints are currently only available in the US and Australia. All Australian orders are printed, framed, and shipped from my lab in Adelaide. The frames at my lab in Australia are also made locally by hand from top quality materials, but some of the details are a bit different from the US frames - please contact me for more information. *Note that the largest print size available in Australia is 40x60 inches (100x150 cm). FRAMED ART SIZES The sizes listed are print sizes; mats and frames will add to the final size. For example, the outside dimensions of a 20x30 inch matted and framed print is 27x37 inches. Please see the framed art size image here (this is a 2:3 ratio print), or the FAQs for all final framed dimensions. SHIPPING INFORMATION Shipping is free in the contiguous United States.
