While playing around with the new 7DII I managed to capture my grandson sliding into home late for a run using the rapid fire mode. I would like to get a poster made with 4 or 5 shots that are in sequence for that event. Any suggestions on who may do these for me. Thanks in advance.

Probably a case of walking in a shop and asking as it may not be a run of the mill order. Our STAPLES in UK has a printer in shop that can produce stand up displays using your own photo's and graphics so they can obviously print at poster+ size and may do a one off whilst you are there.

What software do you use for post processing (if any)? I have done similar compositions in Photoshop by creating a new canvas of the size I want, then inserting my own pictures on that canvas. If you know the poster sizes your local printers can work with, you should be able to create the whole thing the way you want it, then take the final product in as a pre-sized image for them to print.

Depending on what your desired effect may be. Some places like Walmart can do a collage of a number of photos that you upload. You can do it on line and see the result before ordering. These are not blended or overlapped as you can do in Photoshop, but are cheap.

Thanks for the replies. I have PC CS5 and LR5 as well as DPP so I'm covered on the software side. There was a thread a while back where a somewhat similar questions was asked and one of the responses had the links to a couple of online shops that all you need to do is send them the files and they get it printed to the size you choose. I'll see if I can do as Picdude suggests but I'm still on a learning curve for PP. Thanks again.
