David Bowie, Fenton Lake, Novo México, 1975

I framed this print in my hallway and the matte finish really lets the grain of the 1975 film stock shine through, especially in the shadows around his eyes. The paper has a nice weight to it, too, not flimsy at all. For a photo that has this much history behind it, the clarity is honestly stunning.

The backstory printed on the back of this print gives it so much more depth than a typical poster. The black-and-white tones in the photo itself feel incredibly sharp and moody, capturing that 1975 vibe perfectly. It’s now the centerpiece of my small gallery wall, and I catch myself reading the note

The grain and texture in the print really bring out the quiet intensity of that New Mexico desert light — exactly the mood I was hoping for. It's a great conversation piece, and the paper quality feels archival.
