Rob, that is simply awesome! That second photo is really nice too. Walking around in your house must be like visiting a professional photo gallery.

Thanks Everyone !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You would be surprised how few photos i have in our home, i give most of them away to friends , but this one is all mine .

A while ago I had Ferrari Color do a bunch of enlargements for us that were about that sizes that we have up in the shop.

Rather than frame them, we had them put onto 'Gator foam' which is just commando foam core and then laminated to protect them.

I think they were about $130 each.

I went into a frame shop today, picked out the wood i liked , gave them the dimensions , and was told it would be $325.00 I passed !!!!!!!!!!!!

Rob,

I know what you mean when it comes to framing. I had my gyotaku print of my first permit framed. The frame was close to 3'x 5' with non-glare glass. I had to mortgage the house. I think it cost me close to $400.00 and the print still sits in the closet

It might be hanging in Keith's office pretty soon

Custom matting and framing of pictures, prints or painting is really expensive.

I may just start making my own , 325.00 would be a good start on all the tools.

Well i was able to get a frame for 200.00 and that was with some new glass ( 80.00 ) that does not reflect and has UV protection . They showed me a sample of the glass in a frame and i had to tough it , i could not see it . In guess i can't complain , the total for the print and frame , glass , matting and foam backing is 280.00 .
