Limited Edition Photography

I’ve been busy lately producing a limited number of original images which I am now offering for sale.  They come custom framed, matted, numbered and signed and printed on quality Hahnemühle, Baryta Fine Art Paper.  This paper sets the benchmark for high colour depth, large colour gamut and image definition. This paper gives the”wow” factor particularly to black and white prints with an extremely high dmax and the finest grey tones.

These images are offered in a limited edition run, between 20 and 40 prints only, and come with a certificate of authenticity.

If you’re in Melbourne and you wish to view these framed prints, please email me at amancuso@galleriamancuso.com to arrange an appointment.

You can view these limited edition prints here.

latest images @ galleria mancuso

These are some of my latest images.  Please contact me if you wish to purchase one of these or simply follow the prompts from within the galleries for any other image.

“the invasion” is a group of trees I found captivating at Shoreham Beach on the Mornington Peninsula.  They are quite mysterious and seem totally out of place along side the beach.

“the awakening” is a budding agapanthus plant.  I added a second layer for texture and effect.

“timeless teardrops” is of a hibiscus flower after a rain shower.  I changed the colour by adding multi layers working in photoshop until I was happy with the result.

2010 puppy calendar added to the list!

I’ve just added a delightful doggie calendar featuring my Cavalier King Charles Spaniels in various stages from pups till now.  Figuring the eldest is not yet three, that’s not a long time but some classic and cute images there.

There are many other themes available as well.  See them here.

Plus a little bit of self promotion along with some bragging rights today.  I have been featured in the Australian Photographic Society’s Online November Newsletter, which goes out to all members of the Australian Photographic Society’s Contemporary Division.  What a huge thrill it was to have been asked and to contribute.  This is the second time I have been featured in an APS article, the first was when asked to contribute to the APS suppliment magazine, Image, some of my recent images of my trip to Beijing.

The images that were included can be seen here.

The article, including pictures and a bit about how I got into photography, plus a pretty bad photo of me.  The full newsletter can be read by clicking the link below.
