Technology is fantastic these days, we are lucky to be able to have our best photos printed on canvas and made into a work an artist would be proud of. The technicians in the photo laboratories use really big, commercial sized printers to turn your photos into your preferred canvas size. Then they stretch it onto a frame that is deep. You can help create great images by preparing them at home first, this will give you the maximum result even before you have sent them to the lab or before you go to the store with your photos.
For greater results, you should always shoot your desired photo with the highest resolution setting on your camera. The highest the resolution of your camera, the better the picture will be. For example, if you have a camera with eight megapixels, it will give you four times the resolution of a two megapixel camera. The eight megapixel camera gives you a photo with eight million colored dots and not two million. Imagine how much more clearly defined your photograph will be, especially once canvased.
After taking your photo or photos, go to your computer and save it as a file. When it is saved, open up photoshop or any other manipulation software you might have on your computer.
Zoom onto your desired image, you do this by clicking where it says view size of print. This is where you will be shown the image at its greatest size.
Make sure you save your photo or photos as a jpeg file at three hundred dpi (in dots per inches that is, that the printer will print). Most larger format printers will print at 300 dpi for printing onto canvas.
The steps we have just gone through will prepare your photos for basic canvas prints. If you are looking for a variety of different styles to turn your print into a greater work of art, there are video tutorials on the internet that are easy and will prepare you and your photos for different styles of art such as Gallery Wrap, Block Colour Border and Mirror Image Wrap. Just Google these creative styles on the internet and you will be making wonderful pieces of art in no time.
All you have to do then is send on your chosen image or images to the photo lab you wish and go pick them up when they are ready. You will be delighted with the results. They will make long lasting gifts that will be cherished and photos printed on canvas look divine in every room in your home.
