( 01 / The photograph )

I am a sucker for a checkered floor.

Park Street, Bristol. Autumn 2024, I think.

I stopped for the tiles. I do not really know why they get me, but they do, and the colours were good.

The sun was going down and throwing hard shadows across the floor, lighting up one half of it.

Then I stepped closer to take the picture and my own leg threw a shadow the other way. That is what left the strip of light down the middle. It was not planned. It is just where I happened to be standing.

One photo, that was it.

It makes me think of balance.

( 02 / How it's made )

Nothing exists until you order it.

( 01 )

Made to order

There is no warehouse of these, and no box of unsold copies. Yours is produced after you buy it. That is why it takes a little longer than something pulled off a shelf, and why nothing is wasted.

Premium Luster, premium inks

A semi gloss paper with enough texture to hold fine detail and enough sheen to keep the darker tones deep. Museum quality, which for a photograph mostly means it looks like the picture rather than an approximation of it.

Printed near you

Where possible your print is produced at the facility closest to your delivery address, so the parcel travels a shorter distance to reach you.

Frame not included. Print only, ready for your own frame or display style.

Framing it with a border? Buy the frame one size up from the print and use a card mount. A 16x20 print sits well in an 18x24 frame.

Mitch Lucas, the photographer behind this print

( 06 / Who made it )

Hi, I'm Mitch.

I make things and tell stories with a camera, a curious mind and a deep passion for documenting life.

Photography, for me, is an act of presence. A practice of curiosity about the spaces we inhabit and the small wonders often overlooked.

Every print is a reflection of that journey. A reminder that the extraordinary lives within the ordinary, if only we choose to see it.

More about me

Mitch

( 07 / Questions )

Before you buy.

01Which size should I choose?

Measure the wall first. As a rough guide, the smallest size suits shelves, alcoves and smaller wall spaces, the middle sizes work above a desk, a console table, a sofa or a bed, and the largest is a statement piece for a big wall. Every size is listed above in inches and centimetres.

02Does it come with a frame?

No. It is the print only, ready for your own frame or display style. If you want a white border around the print, order the frame one size up and use a card mount.

03What is it printed on?

Premium Luster semi gloss paper, printed with premium inks. Semi gloss holds fine detail without the glare you get from a full gloss finish, which matters when the print is behind glass.

04Do you ship worldwide?

Yes, with free delivery on every order, wherever you are. Prints are produced at the facility closest to your address where possible, so the parcel travels a shorter distance.

05How long will it take to arrive?

Every print is made after you order it, so it takes longer than something sitting in a warehouse. Production starts as soon as your order comes through, and delivery time depends on where you are in the world.

06What if it arrives damaged?

Prints are packed in protective kraft packaging to survive the journey. If yours turns up damaged, email me a photo as soon as you can at contact@mitchellucas.com and I will take a look.

07Is this a limited edition?

No. This is an open edition, printed individually whenever someone orders one. Nothing is numbered. If you are interested in limited editions, sign up to my mailing list for the next drop.
