Check prices, there may not be any reason other than convenience to use Flickr rather than Bay directly. Download the bay roes software and process your photos specifically for printing. On September 4, 2019 4:11:06 PM PDT, Eric Weir wrote: > >> On Sep 4, 2019, at 1:54 PM, l...@red4est.com

Ann, where on the Panhandle was your seascape taken? I visited most of the beaches there back in the mid 1960s. Dan Matyola http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/danieljmatyola On Wed, Sep 4, 2019 at 12:16 AM Brian W wrote: > G'day all > > View the September gallery here: > >

I agree with Ken. We are all indebted to Brian for all his hard work and skill on our behalf! I also agree that this large gallery is also one of the best ever. There are many strong images, and a lot of artistic compositions. What also impresses me is the geographic distribution included in

Thanks once again Brian for all the time and effort you expend in putting out the monthly PUG. A lot of good images in this months edition, but I especially like Larry's Natural Bridge's at night and Pat Timmerman's Sky Above, Sea Below. Kenneth Waller

I haven't posted to the group in several years, but I've been following. On this topic, maybe I have some information to offer. I recently had reason to try the "Fracture" service that most of you (in North America, at least) have probably already seen advertised (https://fractureme.com). I

Generally, "72 dpi" is screen resolution. You don't want to print at "72 dpi" because it will look like crap. At the 240ppi Godfrey mentioned 4032 x 2268 pixels gives you 16.8 x 9.45 inches. To get a 20" wide print, 4032 pixels is going to give you around "201 ppi", suggesting a crop to 2016

Can’t give you much advice on print services since I always do my own prints. But be aware that that pixel count on the long edge nets a max print area length of about 17” @ 240ppi which is as low as I’d want to go for best detail on a landscape shot like that. G > > I have never printed a

Eric, as I’ve posted here before, I’ve had very good results with Bay Photo. They’ve done everything from 4 X 6 inch up to 2 X 3 feet prints on paper, canvas and metal for me and I have nothing but good things to say about them. They will offer discounts (usually 20% off) from time to time when
