>How do you get a print this big?
 
> 12 feet high and 110 feet long, and have made several that were 8 feet by 50 feet.
 
Mural prints are enlarged in sections onto photo paper 52 inches wide by the height of the mural.  Wider paper is available, but the instalation becomes a real bear.  Color prints are machine processed but black & white can be tray processed by hand.  The final product is either laminated and mounted or wet mounted on the hanging wall.  You will be amazed at the wonderful 3-D effect a pan photo makes when mounted in a circular shape and you are standing in the right spot.  The big negative that a cirkut makes is perfect for this type of work.  I've made about twelve huge prints so far and have just received a commission to make an 18 foot high by 60 foot mural for the National Park Service.  This mural however will be digitally printed in Vancouver B.C.  Gotta get modern sometimes....
