Thank you for visiting the fine art prints section of the website.
Thanks to the rapidly evolving printing processes a new era of digital
print technology has begun. In terms of tonality and color, subtlety and
detail photo reproduction can now surpass the capabilities of traditional,
chemical color or black & white photography. The process of printing
include some of the best state-of-the-art equipment available.
Use the "Magnify Image"
button to enlarge an image. A very interesting feature of the gallery is that you can drag the pictures around your
monitor screen and position them as you wish.
To do so click on the title bar of the window (containing the image) with
the left mouse button, hold down and drag to position to your liking. Several pictures may be viewed at the same time using this method. It
would be recommended to switch
your browser to full screen view to be able to fully utilize this feature.
Under Windows system press F11 on your keyboard.
Scanning
Hasselblad and Nikon cameras are used to capture images onto fine grained transparency film. After developing the transparencies, only select images are
prepared to print. Scans are created with a Linotype-Hell ChromaGraph S3300 drum scanner using ColorPilot and a calibrated monitor to fine tune color and
ensure tonality and accurate reproduction of color.
Pigmented ink
Ink used to print is Roland UV-stable pigment inks that produce vivid, eye-catching graphics with enhanced color. Ongoing tests at Wilhelm Research indicate over 100 years indoor print permanence with Roland pigment ink printed on the Hi-Fi JET or
CAMMJET printers.
Print Types
Images are currently printed on 13×19 inches (330×483) 240g/m2 semi-gloss photobase
paper. Actual image size is A3. This type of paper
ensures a true photographic look while retaining all the fine detail captured with the drum
scanner. Prints are created with a wide format Roland CJ-540 CAMMJET PRO II printer/cutter that combines all the high-performance features of the
Hi-Fi JET PRO II printer system.

These photographic prints like all works on paper, are vulnerable to ultraviolet (UV) rays, heat, humidity, and acidity.
Maintaining the following when displaying or storing your prints should be
helpful:
Do not hang prints in direct sunlight (UV rays)
Keep the prints at least 15 inches away from artificial light sources. (heat & UV rays)
Preferably frame your print using UV resistant glass or Plexiglas.
Do not hang your print in rooms with high moisture content.
Do not keep prints near heat sources. (stove tops or
radiators etc.)
When having your prints framed, request that an air gap is left between the print surface and the glass. This will avoid condensation.

product is offered. The utmost care is taken preparing and shipping these fine
prints.

Some essential steps should be followed that are required to streamline the process of replacing your prints that are damaged on arrival.
The prints are adequately ensured, and are delivered in a heavy card board tube or box therefore in case the prints are damaged on arrival there would be clear signs of it on the protective tube itself.
