Maybe you can, but …

We start with a library of images from the Hubble Space Telescope.  Next comes the image enhancement process where we use a variety of software to bring the image to it’s peak.  This involves things like saturation, radiance, balancing colors and contrast through three different tone ranges.  Remember dodge and burn from your film development days.  The resulting image is an artistic expression of the original image.

Next comes the test prints using various inks, canvas and resolutions to ensure we get the right blend to produce an optimal image.  Plan on throwing away the first 10 tries.

Finally, the canvas is stretched and framed and mounted on a variety of backgrounds to be sure we haven’t missed anything.

The result is a canvas that you can be proud to own.
