Her prints combine dramatic photography, vivid colors, and artistic touches to create new, captivating visions of the natural world. Using a Hasselblad H1 with an ultra-high resolution 22 megapixel digital back, she is able to capture the subtle details of the natural world and transfer them to large prints with stunning clarity and color. She does her own printing on fine art paper or canvas with long-life pigmented inks. Ms. Carmel has spent years exploring and photographing the diverse landscapes of the world. Her award winning images are in numerous galleries and private collections throughout the United States, and were recently selected for display at the Nevada Museum of Art.
"I use the Genuine Fractals Print Pro software to upsize images, since I do very large prints (30 to 72" wide). I am very happy with how the new version of the product works - I shoot with a 22 mega pixel Hasselblad digital back and Genuine Fractals does a beautiful job of upsizing the data in those files. It is very easy and fast to use it since it integrates so well with Photoshop."
In recognition of her fine art photography and technical expertise, Elizabeth is one of 12 photographers worldwide honored with the Hasselblad Master Photographer award for 2007. Her prints will be added to the Hasselblad corporate collection in Sweden and used for a worldwide promotional campaign.
