  The Milky way over the Azure Window and the Blue Hole complex in Dwejra, Gozo.
  

  This is the most visited natural landmark on the island of Gozo. Since I started shooting panoramas, my goal was always to, one day, shoot this magical place under the majestic Milky Way, arching from West to North in the Summer night sky.
  
  I wanted to fit in one image all the interesting features this place has to offer. Little I knew that shooting at the edge will give me a circular effect when combining all the images together. Visually looking like a closed circle, this creates an infinite bond between the Earthly elements of land and sea with the night sky. The rough sea was a bonus that night, which added movement and texture to the shoreline.
  
  A 846.81MP, wide-field, multi-row panorama of 45 images in 5 rows.
  Captured on the 22nd of August, 2015.
  
  In Memory of Maria Stella Vancell — my loving Mum, my guiding Star.
  Shot in the early morning hours of her 66th Birthday, I will never forget how happy she was when I showed this to her. My no.1 fan, showing my photos of beautiful Malta to everyone she met. This picture will always remind me of her, taking us to a timeless journey through the sea and stars.

• Our prints are produced on high quality Fine Art Smooth Cotton 300gsm paper. Smooth Cotton is an acid and lignin free paper made of 100% cotton, making it archival and perfect for giclée printing. The paper has a matte, velvet finish and we specifically chose this paper as it yields high saturated colours with no reflections, making it ideal to be displayed behind glass. In fact, matte paper is the easiest to view in all lighting conditions with richer blacks and more vibrant colours.
  
  Giclée printing is the combination of high resolution inkjet printing technology, K3 pigment based inks and archival fine art paper. The result is a superior quality, finer resolution print with more accurate colour reproduction. The combination of pigment based inks and archival paper gives the prints a long life-time. Pigment inks are more stable and thus resist fading much longer than dye-based inks. If properly stored or displayed, a pigment-based print on quality paper can last a 150 years and more.
  
  A 2” (50mm) white border is added to the prints to facilitate handling and framing.
• Please note that we ship unframed fine art prints and gallery blocks worldwide.
  Custom framing is only available for Malta orders.
  
  Custom Framing
  Our frames are custom made for each order and we offer four kinds of frame profiles - a smooth finish and a wood textured finish in black and white. All are deep box frames, helping the overall finished framed fine art print to stand out. Read more about Our Custom Framing here.
  The wood textured box frame is 15mm wider than the clean/smooth finish box frame and is therefore recommended for the larger sized prints.
  
  Gallery Blocks
  For those who want a finish with no glass, a gallery block is a giclée print, mounted inside a 40 mm deep frame with a slim 6 mm border around the photo. A matt lamination film layer is added on top of the print, protecting it from dust and scratches. This enables you to carefully wipe the print with a damp cloth, without damaging the artwork. Read more about Our Gallery Blocks here.

Therefore, we offer our customers a unique warranty: If you are not satisfied with your fine art print, we will gladly help you exchange it for another piece or give you a total refund on your purchase. Take your time, you have up to 3 months to decide!
  
  The print and frame (if framed) must be in a like-new condition. Return shipping will not be included in the refund.
