Must have excellent colour reproduction and looking for a large size canvas.

Thanks ☺

I had a photo put onto canvas by Hakan photo, they have now moved to near Yeniceri hotel, opposite the tourism school. Maybe worth asking them?

Thanks Lissa and Kev

Not sure what size Kev, it's a high resolution image but need to see how big it can be printed before losing the quality. Are you here or in the UK?

It is my photo but actually the canvas was for a friend and that may not happen now... Although I'm hoping it still will   :)

I was sort of hoping that Carol Bostan was going to be able to help but neither I nor my friend seem to be able to contact her. I know she had all the printing equipment and we had spoken a year or so ago about it.

I am also interested in having images put onto cards for a special project I'm working on.

Carol no longer has her printer, but does have a guy that does her printing for her in Fethiye. Have you tried contacting Carol through her FB page?

I tagged Carol in a post and my friend messaged her but if she no longer has the printer that's useful to know thanks Baz.

Excellent quality colour & resolution.

The only real way to judge this type of printing is to look at it six months down the line and see if it still has excellent quality colour & resolution.  Seen so may cheap jobs where the ink quality has been poor and the prints (canvas & other media) start to fade way before they should.
