A fine art photograph of a cargo ship at Port Kembla, captured at sunrise in January 2023 on the NSW South Coast.

In the stillness of an early summer morning, a cargo ship sits at anchor in the waters of Port Kembla — one of Australia’s busiest industrial ports — her deck laden with wind turbine components bound for Australia’s growing renewable energy future. The first light of sunrise washes the scene in warm, golden tones, casting long reflections across the harbour and softening the hard lines of steel and industry into something quietly beautiful.

Print Options

Framing
Framed prints are presented with a double mat and UV-protective acrylic glazing in your choice of Black, White, or Oak timber frame. Framed canvas and Metallic Float Framed options are available in the same frame colours, with Dark Oak also available for the float frame. 

About the Framing

All frames are crafted from premium timber mouldings in your choice of Black, White, or Oak finish, with Dark Oak available for the Metallic Float Framed option. Frames up to 24×36” use a 30mm profile; the 40×60” format steps up to a 40mm profile to suit the scale of the work.

Framed Prints (8×12” to 24×36”) are mounted behind a double mat with a 6cm border all around — an inner and outer mat board that creates depth and draws the eye into the image — and finished with UV-protective acrylic glazing to guard against fading and dust.

Framed Prints (40×60”) are presented without a mat — the print extends to the frame edge with a spacer for depth, finished with UV-protective acrylic glazing. Frame profile: 40mm.

Framed Canvas prints are float mounted within the frame with a deliberate gap between the canvas edge and the frame rebate, giving the work a contemporary gallery feel. No glazing is used, preserving the natural texture of the canvas surface.

Metallic Float Framed prints are similarly float mounted, allowing the distinctive lustre and edge of the Metallic Pearl substrate to remain fully visible. No glazing required — the metallic surface is its own statement.

All of our fine art pieces are handcrafted locally by our trusted experts here in the Illawarra, ready to hang straight from the box.
