By this point the question is a physical one: how big, and in what. Dark astronomy images don't behave like most wall art, because the size and the frame decide how much of the black reads as picture and how much reads as gap. These pages take size, finish and resolution in turn, with the numbers rather than a mood.
The reading, in order
- Canvas, framed print or poster
- Choosing a moon phase print
- What DPI a photo needs
- The right size for a wall
- The 2/3 rule
- Can wall art be too big?
- Canvas: framed or bare
- Canvas prints
- Framed prints
- Starting an astronomy wall
And after that
The stage that follows this one is the collection: Subject by subject: the Moon, the planets, galaxies, nebulae, blueprints and the retro travel posters.
