It really looks great MT. I am very impressed! You did a very nice job in photographing, and printing "As Usual" I know it must have been very time consuming, but the results are great!!!

Our city is in the process of building a huge new library, first new one here since 1898. I was commissioned to do a series of panoramas of the city to display in the new facility. I just finished the first one and printed it last night. The print is 18" x 78" in size. I had to remove a sliding closet door and lay it across the kitchen counter for a drying table. I hope this image comes through.
Looking good so far!

You are still number one in my book. I wish there was a new number that was more accurate. I wish we were neighbors. But any time you want to visit Florida you will be my guest.

Excellent work MT... With that massive a print job did you have a pit stop for ink half way through! :lol: I haven't tried pano yet but now you have inspired me. Thanks for sharing. How do you like the HP printer?... I'm researching wide format. Thank you

Really nice work, MT. At first glance I thought it might have been tougher than you anticipated since It appears as though the corner weights are shot glasses.

How will they be prepared for the library display -framing, etc?
The final display style and location has yet to be determined as the new building is little more than a steel skeleton right now. But they will be displayed behind UV resistant glass no matter what.

I spent a lot of time in Florida, but not since 2004. Might be time for a return visit! Thanks.

No, actually none of the gauges on my ink reservoirs dropped at all printing this. I was careful to watch them just in case.
I use the HP130NR printer and the ink is actually pretty economical with it.

Not exactly, they are crystal hot cocoa cups. I was getting to the end of a paper roll and had to weight the ends down during drying. But an old fashioned glass was utilized to its fullest extent afterwards! :thumbup:
