ABSTRACT

This chapter is short, but it contains a lot of things worth knowing if you ever want to turn your photos into real physical things that you can hold in your hand and put on your wall, rather than something you only ever see on a screen. What with web photo sharing sites, e-mail and Wi-Fi enabled electronic photo frames, most of your photos may never find their way onto paper. Believe it or not though, not everyone owns a PC and, even among those who do, there are people who will always prefer a physical printed photograph over an electronic one. Some photo competitions still insist on you sending hard copy prints and if you want to exhibit your photos or just hang them on the wall you’ll need to know how to print them.
