OK thanks Chris I will. I also have to make sure I’m embedding the right ICC profile so I’ll stop by there before I go in to get it printed.

Robin, just to be safe, ask the camera shop if your digital file is sufficient before you plunk down the photo and $…

Thanks Jocie and Chris!

The picture is 10×21″ at 300 pixels/inch. I was thinking of getting it a 10×20 gallery wrap canvas so the picture will only be blown up slightly to make up for the wrap. Thanks for the link. I’m glad to see that the price isn’t too much better than the quote I got from our local high end camera and printing store. I’m probably use them since most other places require that you be a professional photographer. I’ll definitely have to add some pictures of the finished product in my blog. Thanks again!

I’m using a Canon 40D with one of the following (varies with particular shots): EF 24-70mm f2.8L, EF 70-200mm f2.8L IS, EF 400mm f4 DO IS, or EF 100mm f2.8 Macro

I do most of my prints through White House Custom Colour at whcc.com. They have a downloadable pdf catalog of all their products, and they do print on canvas. Actually, canvas may hide some of the pixelation that enlargement wold create, since the surface is grainy. You would have to convert your files to a resolution of 300 pixels and then see what it looks like at the size you want. They are a pro printing outfit, and they could tell you minimal specs for particular sizes, I’m sure.

Hi Jenni, Modernemama, and Robin!

Thanks for your comments. I’m not sure what camera my dad uses, but I will find out and get back to you.
As far as enlarging and printing on canvas, I have never done that myself. I imagine the resolution will have to be extremely high in order to keep the quality. Do you know the resolution of the photo? I’ll do some looking around to see if I can find more info.

I checked out your photo (and story) - what a beautiful place to have a honeymoon!!

Beautiful! I can’t wait to decorate our new house with pictures and paintings.

One question though…Have you (or your dad) ever had a photo enlarged and printed on canvas? I’m looking to have this photo from our honeymoon in Fiji blown up and printed on canvas as an anniversary present for my husband:

It’s an odd size so it will probably have to be custom. I’ve found one local place that will do it but would like to find a couple other places to compare the price.

Thanks!
