What's your biggest print?

[MrBook2]

This may have been covered in another thread before (I didn't see one in my brief search) but I am curious to know; what is the largest print you have made of your own work? In this case, I really want to know how big you have had something printed for YOU, not for a client or as a gift. How large have you made a print for yourself.

The biggest I have gone on a "normal" picture is 8x10. I want to print something bigger, but I just can't make up my mind which of my thousands of pictures to print. I did make one oddball large size. I have a panorama of a glacier in Alaska that I printed using EZ Prints by-the-inch method (EZ Prints is the printer that smugmug uses). It came out 6 inches by about 3 feet. I then matted it myself and it hangs in my living room. I wanted to go with the 12 inch high printing, but the wife thought it might be a little TOO big for the room.

Typically 16x21. But most of my larger shots are printed at 13x19. Both are usually easily attainable with modern DSLRs.

20x30 on occasion. I can get those done, with surprising quality, at my local HEB (grocery store) on one-day turn-around at a good price. I do 12x18 often at CostCo. With a good quality lens, a 6MP dSLR can make rather nice poster prints.

Here is my biggest so far. I had a D100 and 35-80 zoom (the 24-120 was in the shop) and I took this picture of my father-in-law. His daughter (my wife) is holding the picture.

You can read the phone number on the dog's tag! It was printed on an HP 1055CM. I have photo paper for it now and plan to print more.

I think this is size "E".

I had a 30x40 made of this montage last Christmas, and then had to print 3 more by request of my kids:
