The optimal method of buying one of my Limited Edition images is to purchase a print only; that is, without mount and frame. You probably already have a good idea where the image is to hang and may be wondering whether my choice of frame is going to blend into your surroundings. Selecting a frame is a personal choice. Obviously,the frame has to be one you like and suit where it's to hang. My preference may not be yours, but a plain black frame is available should you so wish.
The 'Image Size' you see below is the total area of the Cibachrome paper provided by Ilford. You will lose a good half inch of this all round so that the window mount can hold the image securely in place. Each image is hand-printed by myself from a 10x8 inch transparency. You've probably seen a 35mm transparency? Well, imagine one 80 times bigger (10x8):eighty square inches for one image. You may also ask - why bother? The difference in detail and definition is quite astonishing. Enlarge a 35mm transparency to 24x20 inches and you'll see pretty enormous grain and the image will appear fuzzy. That's because the transparency has been enlarged 17.4 times the original (17.4 x 35mm = 24 inches). Conversely, a 10x8 inch transparency is only enlarged 2.4 times the original (10 inches x 2.4 = 24). The result has to be seen to be believed. Every image you see on this web-site has a Limited Edition run of 50, any given customer therefore knows that besides his copy there are only 49 others in the world. If you think that the image is too large for the space you have in mind, then no worries : a slightly smaller print can be made, although the price remains the same. If in doubt please email me.
Delivery of a print-only is 4 days. Add £75 for a mounted and framed image : delivery would be approximately 14 days Prices include VAT @ 17.5%. Payment: Pay Pal or a cheque. |
