Converting your personal photos onto a canvas print
Converting your own personal photos & images onto a canvas print has become a very popular way to show off your pictures. Everyone has photos that they have always wanted converted onto a large canvas print but never knew how to go about it.
Converting an image onto canvas is much easier than you would think. With the invention of digital cameras over the past 10 years it is now possible to blow up your photos larger without losing any of the quality. Just like with a television set a photo has pixels in it. If you get very close to your tv you can see it is made up of tiny little dots (pixels) – it is the same with a photo. The more pixels the better quality the photo. The good thing is with digital cameras is you can pick one up for around £60.00 now days & it is capable of taking some very good quality photos.
The key thing to remember when you are looking for a photo to convert onto canvas is that you leave a good border to be wrapped around the stretcher bars. Stretcher bars are the 4 pieces of wood that make up the frame for the canvas print. They come in various depths the deepest being 1.5 inch. So you don’t really want to be taking a close up of someones face as you could lose some of it round the sides & back. The only way round this is to put a border all the way round the photo so this will be round the sides & then the main focus point of the image (in this case someones face) would be on the front. But this is really defeating the object of a canvas print as the whole point is you wrap some of the image around the frame to give an effect it is coming away from the wall.
So if you take a photo of say your dog in the sea make sure the dog is in the middle of the photo & you don’t zoom in too close to him. This way when you want it put onto canvas the person that does it can wrap round the sea part of the photo while leaving your dog centre of attention.
