THE IMAGE This limited edition photograph captures the raw power of a U.S. Air Force F-16 Fighting Falcon ("Viper") launching from Nellis Air Force Base. Taken on January 30, 2025, during the Red Flag 25-1 exercise, the image freezes the moment of departure as the aircraft banks toward the Nevada test ranges for a high-intensity combat training mission.

THE MEDIUM To match the gleaming aluminum skin of the aircraft and the intensity of the desert sky, this piece is produced on Metallic Fine Art Paper. This specialized archival medium offers a unique pearlescent finish and high visual depth, giving the print a vibrant, metal-like luminescence that standard papers cannot achieve.

THE EDITIONS This artwork is released in two exclusive limited editions:

Standard Edition (Limit of 50): 20"w x 10:h image size.

Statement Edition (Limit of 25): 40"w x 20"h image size.

Please Note: The artist reserves the right to produce up to 5 Artist Proofs (A/P) outside of these numbered editions for exhibition, charitable donation, or personal archiving.
