So my Fairburn-stealing rockhunting partner son had some group pictures of Fairburns that he's found and I came across a deal on 16"x20" canvas prints for $19 with free shipping so I thought I might have one made for him for Christmas. Looking for opinions on which, if any, might look the best. Thanks!     |

I like the cropping in the first one.

I like the cropping in the first one. Yeah, the first and last ones are actually the way he sent them to me. I thought about messing with the cropping on the other ones but haven't done much with it yet. I also considered trying to get them and take better pics but I like to surprise people.  |

#1 IMHO, it has the best lighting and depth of field. I also like that material.  The other photos appear to be out of focus in some areas. Could be me...don't have glasses on. The other suggestion for #1 would be to crop the top part of the photo to just where the rim of the dish is eliminated. Here...I played a bit. Hope you don't mind.  |

It's not just you, he didn't send the greatest pics. And I like the way you cropped it, maybe I'll play around some more. Thanks! |

miket, I had 100's of digital photos printed out for me by shutterfly. You need a pretty high resolution to get prints- esp a 16x20. How big are those photos? What is th DPI? Before you make the plunge make sure you read the fine print. Some of my digitals weren't high enough resolution for printed photos.

I know that he took them with his phone...maybe I'll figure out a way to get his rocks and get some good pics with my camera. |

I print a lot of photos, in fact I'm just doing a 16x20 canvas wrap for a gift. The lab you use should be able to tell you if the image will work. Is this a rolled up canvas or a canvas wrap? I like the first one, too.
