Canvas print


Recommended Posts

Just thought I'd share some pics of a canvas print of one of my images that my wife surprised me with:

I'm very pleased with it.  Obviously not a good way of showing high resolution data, but it's a fun format and gives a nice splash of colour, and you can make out the trapezium too !  My wife says the main nebula looks like a vulture flying to bottom left - head with beak, and outstretched wings behind it.

The original image is here.  Actually one of my early efforts, the amount of raw data collected is embarrassingly limited, but I think I had large dollops of beginners' luck with the focus and guiding.  It's been reprocessed at least 4 times by now.

Wow! Looks good. I've shied away from online canvas print companies thinking the print may come out badly done. Yours looks good and as good a job as I would hope for. Which canvas company was used? Lovely image by the way. ;)

it was a local print shop actually, one in East Dulwich, S. London, though don't know exactly where.   I've got a proper hi-res gloss print of my Rosette take too, that I need to get framed up properly

Canvas is a cool medium for prints!  And I totally see the vulture.
