Product Description

A small island sits offshore on the horizon at Fingal Head on the Tweed Coast of New South Wales, with turquoise water in front and a strip of sand and bush along the bottom.

The island gives the horizon something to hold on to, and the water adds depth and distance to the frame.

The island is what holds the picture together. Without it the horizon would be a plain line, and with it the eye has a place to settle and the water has a sense of distance.

Original aerial photography by Matthew Philip

Personally shot by Australian aerial photographer Matthew Philip on a DJI Mavic 4 Pro. The drone's 100MP Hasselblad camera records fine texture in the sand, water and bush, so the detail holds up right through to the largest size.

Where it hangs

The turquoise and sand palette suits white walls, timber and natural fibres. It works in a living room, a bedroom or a holiday home. It is a bright, open piece that suits a room with a lot of light.

Sizes and finishes

Choose a stretched canvas ready to hang, or a black, oak or white framed canvas, in nine sizes: A2 42x59cm, 90x60cm, 100x50cm, 80x80cm, 100x75cm, A0 84x119cm, 100x100cm, 150x75cm and 150x100cm. The rolled fine art paper print comes in 90x60cm, 100x75cm and 150x100cm. Printed to order and shipped free in Australia and the US. Every artwork in the Matthew Philip collection comes from his own aerial photographs of beaches he has personally visited and flown.

About The Location

A small island sits on the horizon in this frame, with turquoise water in front of it and a strip of sand and bush along the bottom. It is a long view, with the sea doing most of the work.

The island is what holds the picture together. Without it the horizon would be a plain line, and with it the eye has a place to settle and the water has a sense of distance.

I made it on the DJI Mavic 4 Pro. The 100MP Hasselblad camera keeps the island sharp at the far end of the frame, so it stays a clear shape and does not blur into the sea.

It is a bright, open piece that suits a room with a lot of light.

Frequently asked questions

All canvas prints on this site are made to order—I print each one specifically for you using museum-quality materials, which means a 3–4 week production and delivery window within Australia. This isn't a warehouse clearance; it's a custom-made product crafted to last decades. If you're ordering before a specific date, get in touch and I can often prioritize your print. Free shipping applies Australia-wide, and you'll receive tracking so you know exactly when your piece is arriving.

Paper and poster prints ship much faster—typically 1-2 business days to anywhere in the world, with free international shipping included. If you need your aerial photography print urgently, this is the best option. The paper is archival-grade (same fade-resistant, professional-quality stock I use in gallery prints), so despite the quicker turnaround, you're not compromising on longevity.

Canvas prints ship ready to hang with your choice of frame style at checkout: black, white, or natural oak. Each frame is specifically designed to complement the composition of the aerial photography and arrives attached and ready to display. If you prefer an unframed print, that's available too—giving you the flexibility to source custom framing locally or match existing décor. Paper prints come unframed but can be ordered with frame recommendations included in your package.

Canvas prints are stretched across 390gsm acid-free poly-cotton matte canvas—the same archival-quality material used by professional galleries and museums for fine art. The inks are fade-resistant and non-toxic, rated for 100+ years without noticeable color shift when kept out of direct sunlight. Paper prints come in three finishes: matte (museum-grade), semi-gloss (vibrant), or fine art paper, all archival-rated. As a Perth-based aerial photographer who has shot every image on this site, I've invested in materials that will outlast the trends—your print is an investment in something that lasts.

Canvas and paper prints are low-maintenance. Keep them away from prolonged direct sunlight (which fades any print over decades) and humidity extremes. If dust settles on canvas, a soft, dry, lint-free cloth does the job—no cleaners needed. Paper prints benefit from framing behind glass or acrylic, which provides UV protection and makes them virtually maintenance-free. Both formats are designed to age gracefully; many customers report their prints looking exactly as vibrant 10+ years later.

I stand behind every print. If your canvas or paper print arrives damaged, the colors aren't right, or anything doesn't meet your expectations, contact me immediately with photos. I'll remake it or refund you—no questions, no process. This isn't just a returns policy; it's a commitment to your satisfaction. Email matt@matthewphilip.com and we'll resolve it within 48 hours.
