Tracy, that is indeed a well done photo subject, color, composition. The subject is not just a tree, it is unique in structure.

Usually I would complain about the main subject being center... but in this case... well, it is indeed the center of the composition... almost like a "vanishing point" photo. I gather from brief reading that they are like my favorite Redriver Pearl Metallic that imparts a glow to the colors... only much more so.

Very nice photo. How big is it? I can visualize it on the wall of a big room with wood walls. Beautiful work.

Tracy, a sin, you cloistered your photo that we would love to see and did not tell us all how to get our own Acrylic Photo!! Rather than ruin my printer putting Acrylic paint in the carts and trying to run 1/4" plastic thru my printer.. well, I looked up... and found... https://www.mpixpro.com/Catalog.aspx/acrylicprints



Don't think a lot of a site which won't even list prices unless you have an account and log in to it... If they can't be bothered to let new users see what it will cost, then this potential new user will take my business elsewhere!

I just received an acrylic print I ordered from Mpix. It took my breath away. It was pricey, but it is beautiful. It was either the acrylic one or they also have one on wood. Both are new to Mpix. I wasn't sure about how my photo would look printed on wood so I went with the acrylic one.

I've seen a few plastic prints and they do look terrific. A friend recently showed me a few glass prints he had made (I can't remember where he got them unfortunately) and they were really nice, very bright and saturated. They looked more like you are seeing a monitor rather then a standard print.

HUGE fan of Acrylic. And in my humble opinion, Whitewall does the best job. I've used Bay Photo also, but Whitewall has consistently been the best. Images pop and appear almost three dimensional, especially the ones with good depth of field. Also, all my friends like the look and when put next to metal prints, they win. I don't sell a lot of images but when I do, they are almost all acrylic.

Nice pic. I'm waiting on my first metal print to be delivered sometime today. Not nearly as large (11x14), but it cost about what an 8x10 framed and glassed paper print cost from a local shop I've used...most of my prints are laying flat on a pile on top of my book case.

Thanks. I have a dedicated wall for framed prints. Also a few photo albums. I only print a couple from each vacation. I also have a digital photo album.

A few? My mom has (at least the ones I saw - all numbered) 81 photo albums! I think one of them has a list of when and where the pics form each are from. My metal print is one of the Blue Angels I took this year at Oshkosh. I looked at acrylic, but it was way out of my budget.
