Blagaj Dervish House

SKU BIH-001

One of my personal favorites – the remote Blagaj Dervish House – sits alongside the strikingly blue water that comes from the Buna Spring, one of Europe’s largest natural springs. Framed by dramatic cliffs which add to its mystical appeal, the monastery’s white walls and traditional Ottoman architecture contrast with the vibrant blue hues of the river. Apart from the developed tourism in this area, the place ranks among my favorite locations with a memorably “enchanting” or “lost-in-time” atmosphere, including Sete Cidades and Sintra (Portugal), Plitvice Lakes (Croatia), cenotes in the Yuctan Peninsula (Mexico) and Ronda (Spain), to name a few.

Getting the shot: I set the camera up on a tripod with the lens a few inches above the surface of the water. A mossy patch of rock extruding from the water a meter in front of me made for an excellent foreground. I used an ND filter to reduce the light (like sunglasses for a camera – that don’t affect the color) so that this long-exposure shot wouldn’t blow out the photo. The long exposure softens the water and adds motion blur for relaxing vibes.

After experimenting with several different printers and types of prints, and speaking with about a dozen different fine art photography gallery owners around the world to pry for their sources, I’ve chosen to work with a renowned print shop in the US who produces superior gallery-level prints. These are statement pieces with superior detail, rich pigments and gloss finishes that will not fade or yellow over time. I have tried several cheaper alternatives, and I feel that these prints best represent my work and will last for years to come.

All prints come with hardware for hanging and do not need any additional framing or components to be ready for display.

Canvas Prints are professional 1 1/2″ thick gallery-wrapped canvas wall art prints. A wire hanger is included as the standard option because they hang perfectly flush to the wall; a sawtooth hanger is a second option (by request only).

Fujiflex Silver Halide Prints use a process inspired by traditional darkroom photography, where light exposure activates unique silver halide crystals in the pigment. Chemical development then reveals the image with unmatched clarity, vibrant color, and smooth, continuous tones. If you’re wondering which print is best, this one is best.

Contact me directly if you desire a frame, specific size or specific editing style.

Allow 7-14 days for processing and production, and 5-7 days for shipping. If you desire a wooden crate or have questions, please ask here.

Due to the print and shipping costs, all sales are final. However, if you have any issues with your print(s), simply let me know and I will work directly with the printer to resolve any issues.
