Going ultrawide on this elephant herd, quite close to our vehicle, helped create the depth and drama in this frame

Chobe has one of the largest elephant populations on earth, and the light in the last hour is extraordinary. An elephant silhouette at the river’s edge against a setting sun was on my list before I even booked the trip, so I planned accordingly.

I am a nature and wildlife photographer based in Toronto launching a fine art prints store. Over a decade shooting in some less explored places like the High Arctic, Okavango Delta, Mara, forests of South Asia and more. Had an image on the cover of Canadian Photography Magazine and featured by BBC Earth on IG.

Prints are limited edition — 30 per image, 15 for select images with editorial recognition. Three substrates: Hahnemühle Baryta paper, Acrylic Facemount, and ChromaLuxe Metal, produced at a certified fine art lab in Toronto.

Entry price is CAD 550 for a 20×30" fine art photo rag (unframed) and goes up to CAD 8100 for an Acrylic facemount (ready to hang). At a given size, Acrylic Facemount runs 2.5-3x of photo rag. I am also thinking about increasing prices as prints within an edition sell out (threshold and % increase to be determined).

Full pricing and a couple of examples of the work here (edition of 30) and here (edition of 15).

Two questions for this community:

1. Does the entry price and 3x substrate premium between paper and acrylic feel justified based on the work?
2. Does within-edition price escalation, where later prints in an edition cost more, make sense or does it add friction for buyers?

Thanks.

Pied Kingfisher photographed in Botswana. With the light being harsh, high key black and white came to mind with the skeletal branch. The large negative space was deliberate. Curious whether it reads as stillness or tension?

Hi, I am Roshan, a nature and wildlife photographer with over a decade of work in some of the less explored places on the planet. I am new to sharing my photography work in Reddit communities, and looking forward to engage with and learn from this fine art community

This is a black and white landscape from Ladakh, shot mid-morning. It is not the golden hour shot, but the one when the light climbs just high enough to cast shadows across every fold in the terrain. I had been looking for something beyond the wide landscape, and it was the texture of the hillside with the play of light that caught my eye here.

Hi, I am Roshan, a nature and wildlife photographer based in Toronto. I have spent over a decade making photographs in the High Arctic, Africa, South Asia and more. Looking forward to engaging with this community. This is 'King of Ice' - a polar bear I photographed in Scoresby Sund in East Greenland, in 2018.

Would love to get thoughts.
