In this mesmerizing view of the Whirlpool Galaxy, M51, we see a cosmic dance unfolding millions of light-years away. The spiral arms swirl gracefully, with hints of blue and white creating a stunning display against the deep blackness of space. Tiny pinpricks of light scattered across the scene remind us of the vastness of the universe. Imagine this remarkable print elevating your space, sparking curiosity and wonder with every glance.

The Whirlpool Galaxy, also known as M51, is a classic spiral galaxy located in the constellation Canes Venatici. It is interacting with a smaller companion galaxy, NGC 5195, which adds to its distinct appearance. The galaxy is approximately 23 million light-years from Earth. This photograph beautifully captures the unique structure and details that make M51 a favorite among astronomers and stargazers.

We offer free shipping, anywhere in the world. This applies to all prints, framed, unframed, canvas, acrylic - everything! It also applies to books and portfolios. To qualify, total order value must be €150 or more. If the order value is less than that a flat rate of just €20 applies.

Irish customers can enjoy free shipping on all orders with no minimum spend required.

We produce all our prints to order, so you can be sure you're getting the best quality work to hang on your wall. As a result, in busy times it can take a while to process the orders. In the worst case, which is generally during the peak months of July-September, it can take 4-6 weeks to receive large framed prints. Large canvases generally take 2-3 weeks. Unframed prints are generally also 2-3 weeks at worst.

We aim to get prints out as quickly as possible, so we would expect and hope that you would receive them earlier than the above timeframes. If you have a particular need to get a print quickly, please let us know in the order notes and we'll prioritize it for you, or you can email us at info@petercox.ie.

Prints are well-packaged and in the unlikely event that it arrives damaged, we'll send a replacement free of charge.

When your order ships, you'll receive an email with your tracking number.

Thanks for your trust, and we hope you get many years of enjoyment from your new print!

Absolutely beautiful prints. Love all of Peter's photos. The smaller print sizes are great for gifting and the larger prints for treating yourself to some new wall art. Highly recommend x

Slea head, Dingle is awesome

I saw this print in his gallery in 2014 never forgot about it. I decided to order a “ready to hang” print and am so happy I did!
It arrived quickly with no damage because it was wrapped so carefully! It’s stunning and I never get tired of looking at it. It brings me back to Ireland every time I see it . The only problem with his gallery is that there are so many gorgeous prints that it’s hard to pick just one. Highly recommend his work and his care of his customers!

Stunning canvas

Peter Cox is an amazing photographer,conscientious business man and a fine person. Our 60x20 Skelligs Sunset arrived in Oregon,expertly packed, and is hanging in our coast home. Peter's advice on size, framing or not to frame, and canvas type were spot on. We have 3 smaller prints at our home in Bend, which we have enjoyed for many years. His work brings me great joy and wonderful memories of times spent in his very special country.
