Information: For the past 25 years, Onne has traveled between tropical destinations and icy reaches of the globe in search of breathtaking photo opportunities. He mixes scenes from the nautical world with dramatic backdrops to create his inspiring images.

Formerly a professional yacht racer, Onne (pronounced On-ah) found his passion for photography while competing in an around-the-world yacht race. Using every opportunity to capture on film the incredible action of a trans-Atlantic crossing, he specialized in dangling high atop a mast some 100 feet above the rising swell. It was this dramatic work that launched his successful marine photography career.

These days, Onne prefers to chase light and beautiful scenery found in picturesque coves, action packed regattas, and bustling nautical towns around the world, including his hometown of Newport, Rhode Island. Many of the images in the gallery were shot on film using Fuji Velvia slide film and a Canon EOS 1 series camera. Onne now shoots entirely digitally using state-of-the-art Canon EOS-1Ds Mk III 21.1-megapixel cameras. None of the images have been manipulated and are color corrected only to duplicate the original color of the subject.

When you buy a limited edition print from the Onne van der Wal Gallery, you are buying much more than a photograph. Each photograph, carefully selected from thousands of possible images, is printed as a giclee on archival photographic paper, canvas or rag paper then signed and numbered by Onne van der Wal. The prints are limited to an edition of 250 per image after which no further prints will be made. The framed photographs are matted and framed with either our standard black ash, cherry, or mahogany frame, or a selection of custom frames with 8 ply mats and UV, non-glare glass. Our canvas pieces are “gallery wrapped” around a 2” x 2” stretcher which gives the image a three dimensional quality. When hung on the wall, these pieces of art seem to be illuminated from behind because of the beautiful saturation of color.

Unframed prints in a variety of sizes are available by special order, and will be assigned an edition number to preserve the integrity of the limited edition. All of the images in the limited edition collection can be viewed on our website, www.vanderwal.com. We are happy to accept orders over the Internet.

You can expect many years of pleasure from a limited edition print by Onne van der Wal.
