The Story: The name "Takakkaw" is a Cree expression meaning "magnificent" or "wonderful," a fitting title for one of Canada's tallest waterfalls. The photograph captures the vibrant, turquoise glacial water rushing over the rugged rocks in the foreground, leading the eye up to the 373-metre cascade as it plunges down the sheer cliff face. The image highlights the raw power and immense scale of the Canadian Rockies, a testament to the ongoing natural forces that shaped this stunning UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Print Name: Takakkaw Falls
Captured: September 2019 | Location: Takakkaw Falls, Yoho National Park, British Columbia, Canada (Ktunaxa and Secwépemc Traditional Territory)
The Story: The name "Takakkaw" is a Cree expression meaning "magnificent" or "wonderful," a fitting title for one of Canada's tallest waterfalls. Fed by the meltwater of the Daly Glacier high in the Waputik Icefield, the falls maintain their impressive volume even in late summer. This photograph captures the vibrant, turquoise glacial water rushing over the rugged rocks in the foreground, leading the eye up to the 373-metre cascade as it plunges down the sheer cliff face. The image highlights the raw power and immense scale of the Canadian Rockies, a testament to the ongoing natural forces that shaped this stunning UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Every print is personally inspected, and hand-signed by Métis artist Jason Lee.

Media Options & Print Details Choose the perfect medium to bring this celestial event into your space:
Museum Grade Rag Paper (Fine Art Paper)
  • Best for: Classic museum-quality collections and custom framing.
  • Details: I use the Palo Duro Soft Gloss Rag from Red River Paper, A 315gsm, 100% cotton fiber paper with a subtle sheen that enhances the deep blacks and vibrant purples of the Aurora. It is archival, acid-free, and meets ISO 9706 standards for long-term conservation.
  • Shipping: Shipped unframed in a rigid tube or flat-packed (8x12).
Gallery Wrapped Canvas Blanco Satin Canvas (Ready to Hang)
  • Best for: A modern, fameless look with an artistic, tactile feel.
  • Details: I use the Blanco Satin Canvas from Red River Paper, Heavyweight 350gsm canvas gallery-wrapped over a 1.5" wood frame. Finished with three coats of protective varnish for UV and moisture resistance.
  • Ready to Hang: Arrives fully assembled and ready to adorn your wall.
ChromaLuxe Metallic Panels (Vibrant & Durable)
  • Best for: High-impact areas where clarity and color "pop" are the priorities.
  • Details: Images are infused directly into aluminum panels for breathtaking depth and a glossy finish. These are scratch-resistant, waterproof, and can be cleaned with standard glass cleaner.
  • Float Mount: Arrives with a hidden rear mount that makes the art appear to "levitate" 1/2" off the wall.
