Printing Photos On Canvas & Digital Photo Tips.

Printing images on canvas & digital photo tips are two things I've wanted to write about for some time. I've been reviewing and enlarging photos for canvas for several years now and I've seen some common mistakes and little things people could do to improve their images.

Most people probably think of digital photographs when they consider printing a photo onto canvas. Companies that do this work, have upload capabilities that can be done right from the computer. This is certainly easy but it is not the only way to go and we must remember our favorite traditional images that we want transferred to canvas.

Let's talk about some tips for taking photographs.

RESOLUTION: relates to the pixel count captured in the image. The denser the pixels, the better the resolution and enlargement is easy. Low resolution will cause your image to pixelate when enlarged. In accordance with your particular camera, you want to set it to the largest setting, typically shown as something like 3888 x 2592. Such a setting limits the number of photos you can take before downloading but you will have the quality and won't miss out on the option to enlarge! Storage is cheap.

IMAGE QUALITY: relates to compression. The greater the compression, the less quality you will have (high compression is good for emailing but not for enlarging). Higher compression will result in ghosting and blotchy colors when enlarged. So, however it is designated in your camera (check your manual), you want to set your camera to the least compression.

PERSPECTIVE: is the angle from which you are shooting. This is especially important when taking photographs of your kids or your pets. Get down at their level. The pictures you take will be much more personal and natural and will make that canvas art more enjoyable as well.

CAMERA LEVEL: I can't count the number of photographs I've corrected because the person shooting didn't take a moment to level (hold it straight) the camera to the horizon. Yes it is easy to fix with a photo editor but take a moment and save yourself some time. When a photo is enlarged for canvas printing the horizon becomes much more obvious and critical to the final outcome.

TRADITIONAL Images: For your traditional photographs from film, there is no way to know if they are usable until they are scanned and the digital image evaluated. Obviously, newer film cameras are a lot better than some from 20 and more years ago. Whether digital or traditional, your pictures will be evaluated for their desired size and you'll be notified if there are any issues. Likewise, old damaged traditional pictures can usually be repaired and brought to sufficient
