Jansen Gunderson Fine Art photography is proud to announce Four Seasons at Oxbow Bend, a special edition portfolio over one year in the making. Four Seasons at Oxbow Bend, consists of 4 photographs all taken from the exact same location during the ideal moments in each of the 4 seasons. Jansen actually returned to this spot more than 4 times (probably a dozen or more) to make these images. 

"Winter time was the toughest," said Jansen, "I remember one morning the temperature read 20 below zero Fahrenheit." Luckily, Jansen's large format view camera functions without the need for batteries and so photographing in the cold presented few technical problems. "The two major issues for photographing the landscape in the early hours of winter, are dealing with frost on the lens and condensation from your breath on the ground glass", said Mr. Gunderson regarding some of the difficulties faced in this committing project. When asked about any other challenges, he said: "Photographing in the Summer time can be difficult. The early sunrise requires one to be en route to his location sometimes as early as 4 o'clock in the morning." 

Photographing with the large format view camera also came with its benefits. The ground glass viewing screen allowed Jansen to use a chrome shot from a previous season to line up the images perfectly for each season. A feature not available to digital photographers.

We are happy to present this unique portfolio for only $150. Each print measures 10x10 inches and comes signed by the artist, with a certificate of authenticity, inside a protective portfolio.
