Photobloc Blog – Canvas Prints

Archive for January, 2010

A lot of people make the mistake of saving thier files as jpegs without setting the file size.

This generally compresses the file but doesn’t allow expansion again when re-opened thus causing pixellation when enlarged.

It is a common problem but one that is easily avoided.

When saving your camera downloads alwys save as jpeg but set the file size to the maximum size possible, this will still compress the file to save disc space but when it is re-opened it will allow the image to expand back to its original high resolution form and thus allow me to produce a canvas print as a canvas photobloc at virtually any size you want.

So a new year is upon us and time for new beginings!

Changing weather with the full force of Winter brings chaos and cold but it also brings superb views across wintery landscapes dusted with sparkling snow, frosted cobwebs in the hedges, children’s snowmen in all thier varied forms. All those images just crying out to be photographed. But how to display them afterwards? Select the best that give a varied and informed view of the season and print on canvas of course!

The New Year can also bring abou change in our personal lives, maybe a new addition to the family, or maybe a newly met partner. Plenty of opportunity for some really special portraits and of course transfering those photos onto canvas will be a great way of presenting them within the home or even as gifts to friends and family.

So what ever the New Year means for you, get snapping and we will get printing!
