about

Hello, and welcome to my online gallery.

I am a photographer based in Knoxville, TN, currently specializing in large-format stitched landscape images, with a particular focus on the countryside of East Tennessee and Western North Carolina. My portfolio is somewhat eclectic, including macro and long exposure photography, as well as a variety of images I’ve taken on trips both in the United States and around the world.

In my professional life, I am a research engineer, and I borrow many of the approaches and techniques my colleagues and I employ at work in my photography workflow. I try, where possible, to push the limits of current photographic hardware and software to create images which present a unique perspective of the world. I am happy to answer any questions about my process, and share what I can with those interested. 

More recently, I’ve started blogging again about various issues, photographic and technical. Comments are always welcome.

My images have been displayed in multiple galleries across the country, and all are available for purchase in a variety of formats and media. 

Most of all, I hope you enjoy the images. Thanks for stopping by.

Prints are available for the images listed below. Images found elsewhere on the site are also available for purchase, if you are interested. Please inquire about any image not on this page, as it may require some modifications (e.g. cropping) before it can be printed. Most (but not all) of the images below are large-format images stitched from hundreds of individual photos. As these images are taken and processed, I don’t give a lot of thought to the particular aspect ratios that would be necessary for printing – as a result, there is often some difference in the cropping of these images compared to the full images you see in the galleries. Because the source images are so large, it enables them to be resized and cropped to a variety of aspect ratios without loss of quality. As a result, many of the images below will be offered in more than one crop ratio. Clicking on any image will give information about the scene, and what sizes that particular image is available in.

I recommend printing the images below on aluminum, acrylic, or on canvas. All can be mounted to a wall without framing. Aluminum and acrylic prints offer excellent detail and saturation, while canvas prints offer a more rustic look. Depending on the crop ratios, the following sizes are generally available:

(1×3): 8×24, 10×30, 12×36 (aluminum, acrylic); 12×36, 20×60 (canvas)
(1×2): 10×20, 12×24, 20×40 (aluminum, acrylic); 10×20, 20×40 (canvas)
(2×3): 16×24, 24×36 (aluminum, acrylic); 16×24, 24×36 (canvas);

Because the price of printing changes from time to time, please contact me (images at wisch dot org) for current prices on any prints. For those interested in other sizes or prints from elsewhere on my site, please feel free to contact me as well.
