The widespread take up of digital photo printing has brought about a revolution in the way that people take store and enjoy their photographs. Whereas, once upon a time, photographs could only be printed off and then stuck into albums or stored in a tin or box, digital images are infinitely flexible and, once captured, can be turned into a myriad of different objects, from key rings and fridge magnets to stunning canvas prints.
Perhaps the key difference between digital photo printing and its’ analogue equivalent is the ease and simplicity of the entire process. Whereas traditional cameras required a roll of film which had to be sent off to a specialist laboratory to be turned into negatives and then printed off as individual photographs, digital photographs are simplicity itself. The images merely have to be uploaded from your camera to a device such as a PC, laptop, iPad or similar, and then can be enjoyed at your leisure, and when you want to get hold of a hard copy of a particular image, printing it off is merely a question of clicking a mouse. If you decide you want multiple copies, then this is just as simple, and the cost of the whole process is minimal compared to that involved with analogue developing.
Over and above basic photographs, however, there is the fact that digital images can be turned into gifts and objects, either to give to others on special occasions or to keep as your own treasured mementoes. Amongst the most striking objects which you can create using your favourite images are canvas prints. Many people like to hang art works on the walls of their home, not merely as decorative objects, but also as a means of creating a self image and projecting their personality for the rest of the world to see. The problem with many cheap canvas prints, of the kind which can be purchased form high street shops and art galleries, is that they tend to feature the same tired old images. Not only is the choice somewhat limited, but the knowledge that many other people will have purchased the exact same print means that the impact to be derived from displaying original artworks is somewhat lessened.
If you want to own a work of art, but can’t afford the exorbitant fees usually charged to create an original artwork, then the answer lies in utilising the power of digital imagery to put one of your own photos on canvas. The process is incredibly simple. No artistic skill or experience is required, and there is no specialist equipment needed. Simply upload the image or images you wish to use to the website and then make use of the software that’s in place. You can modify the size and shape of your canvas, opting for a small, square frame for low key intimate shots but perhaps a larger sized canvas for something more spectacular. Whatever the size and shape, the canvas printing will be done to the highest possible standard, using state of the art technology to ensure that the image is vibrant, sharp and crystal clear. Thanks to a strong wooden frame, wipe clean canvas and a stylish ‘wrap around’ printing effect, the finished product will be a work of art that will last for many years to come.
