Howdy y'all,

I have a series of photos I'd like to print and would like some advice. I've never done much printing of my images and have finished most of them for the web with a frame and white border on the image (as below) but am not sure how this would look with mating and in a frame.

What would y'all suggest for this shot? Also, any recommendations for type of paper? I'll be printing from smugmug.

Thanks!
Jeff

Hi Jeff

Your image doesn't look to have a lot of tonal range, so you might want to look and see if that could be improved. I'd recommend (I'm reading it that you are new to printing), trying as many options as seem financially sensible and seeing which one bets suits your eye.

Cheers
