Hi,
I'm looking to get this applied to an acrylic.
It's not cheap so want to get it right!

What do you think?

for me the colours are great, even better when I loaded the AdobeRGB colour space. The bronzes in the spray really pop and the image lends itself to acrylics. Beware though as the image currently is in AdobeRGB, and most printers will use some form of sRGB, or convert to the native colour space that their device prints in.

If you are ever unsure of how a shot will look in acrylic (they are expensive) get yourself one of THESE, and practice using a satin or matt finished 6x4 print, although I cannot think of an image that doesnt look good in acrylic.

Thank you very much for that, much appreciated.
I will have to ask the print shop, although I doubt they will know. Maybe I will be surprised.

Can you convert the colour space without loss or change of colour?
Interesting photo frame. I will look into these!!

Cheers.

Before it’s printed, ensure your monitor is using the correct colour gamut and proof the image using the print companies ICC profile for their acrylic.
