Botanical ImagesTM
|
|
Botanical ImagesTM are a selection of New England tracheophyte prints. The subjects are often those species that combine aesthetics with noteworthy qualities (e.g., regional or global conservation concern, unusual floral morphology). The images have been obtained using a Sony Cybershot DSC-F707, a digital camera capable of 5.02 effective megapixel resolution. Images are processed using Adobe Photoshop 7.0 software and printed on Hewlett-Packard Premium Plus photopaper using a high-resolution inkjet printer (HP Photosmart 7350). |
The combination of special photo inks and high quality paper produces three desirable qualities:
1. Photo-quality images (4800 x 1200 dots per inch resolution);
2. Long-lasting images, resists fading for up to 65 years (based on manufacturer's specifications);
3. Economical price compared with standard photographic prints.
Images are available for a large number of species. Each is provided with information concerning care of the image and penciled signature and label (unless requested otherwise). Following is a selection of recommended prints (left click any thumbnail to view a larger size image, then use your browser's back button to return to this page after viewing the image).
