RUNNER'S

[Julian de'Courcy]

Beans that is. This morning at The Lost Gardens, it is a wonder anyone finds them or considers them lost as there are big sign posts.

Remarkable detail and colors, Julian.

That first is a cracker, Julian. DP3M? Indistinguishable from medium-format film, I'd say.

Love your comment about signs pointing to the lost gardens...

Remarkable detail and colors, Julian.

Thank you very much Brian.

Thank you Rob. My daughter Kay showed me how to printout multiple a4 size prints from an a4 printer of a single image to put them together for a much larger print. I needed a pic to try that method, so maybe that first one I'll use to experiment.

I am so sorry Julian, the black and white do not come near the first one when it comes to beauty. But again these are just marvelous. Please enlighten me on how you print larger than A4 on an A4 printer. Do you need paper on roll and print in that way, limited as that is on the hight in landscape format, or am I totally wrong as usual? Again quite marvelous colours and DOF. I am all in tears here my friend. Have to sell the lot now or get hold of "Merlin."

Thanks Ivar. I'd recommend a Merlin to anyone who has patients, it is so much like using a film camera. As for the printing, it is a case of printing off several a4 sizes, each being a part of the image you wish to print. Then to glue/stick them onto a backing to make up the large image. When you send an image to the printer, within the options or settings you need the page layout tab. There aught to be an option for multi printing which gives an option for poster printing. If you tick this box it then gives options to how many A4 size prints you choose to print off from the image. This printer prints a maximum of 4x4 A4 sheets from one image. I guess you could choose to divide the image in Photoshop to make an even larger image by printing those divisions with poster printing.

Sorry, patience has never been one of my virtues Julian. By calling upon Merlin, I could possibly get some help in that respect

Yes Merlin is myth and legend along with it's own magic , if you get it wrong it kicks your butt.

Absolutely gorgeous Julian. The last shot is truly cinematic I think. Stunning use of light and it could so easily be a still from a film shot in some tropical jungle.

Thank you kindly Pete. I have to get up before sunrise more often. Love the light then and it most times always works well. Just gotten more lazy as time has gone by, and I stay up far to late.
