About our forest wall canvas prints:
The Sierra Palm forest - a decaying palm. This is true life
in the forest - a palm decays in top of another palm roots.
The balance of life and death - all over the forest.
The large brown leaves are Yagrumo tree leaves, which
coexists with the sierra palms in the cloud forest
over 2,500 feet of altitude. Here humidity is 99% .
Note: This photo was taken before Hurricane Maria.
History:
El Yunque, officially named 'El Yunque National Forest'
(EYNF) is located in northeastern Puerto Rico.
It is the only tropical rainforest in the US National
Park System (NPS) and is managed by the US Forest Service.
It covers a surface of 28,430 acres (115 km2).
It is the largest forest in Puerto Rico.
It was stablished in 1903 by the beginning USFS,
but initially it was set aside in 1876 by King Alfonso XII
of Spain and represents one of the oldest reserves in the
Western Hemisphere. Before that it was revered by the Taino
Indians as a Holy land, and its name 'Yuke' means white land.
Canvas Prints:
We used 1st Canon cameras, then used Nikon 24MP cameras
at maximum resolution and file size. We covered all trails
of the forest and some deep regions in over 40 days of
explorations of the forest and collected over 10K images.
In 2019 we started using the Nikon D850 with 45MP images.
Many of our canvas prints have dates, this is because their
purpose was to be a scientific record of the EYNF at that
place and time. Now that Hurricane Maria has decimated
the forest, it remains a record of how EYNF was after
the natural growth with no major hurricanes in 100 years.
