THE RAVEN
Julie Hollands stunning photo of a raven is getting a lot of attention at our Art Trail exhibition and she has already sold two mounted prints.
When I first opened the file I could see that this was going to be one of the more challenging print jobs and one where it was a top priority to retain detail and optimal exposure throughout the image.
It was important to make sure the feathers at the top and back were visible while at the same time ensuring that the beak area and lower feathers didn't burn right out.
It was decided to print on Ilford Prestige Metallic paper and that combined with the 12 inks of the Canon Pro-1 printer made sure that the print brings out as much detail as possible while still retaining the dark, ominous appearance of the bird.
Another great image from Julie who seems to be able to capture birds at the perfect moment.
