Fine Art Aviation Collection by Larry McManus

......

Hand Crafted Photo-illustrations

......

All the images are original photographs taken by myself. My images are loaded into the computer so I can digitally “HAND” combine, re-illustrate and color correct them to create the perfect final photo-illustration. This process can take "40 hours" or more of painstakingly detailed work. "NO" computer programs are used to automatically create aircrafts, clouds or backgrounds. To achieve the detail and sharpness, some of my murals are comprised of 20 or more of my photographs.

My "Fine Art" aviation prints are not printed using any inks.

To reproduce the fantastic detail and saturated color, my aviation images are printed using actual red, green and blue lasers that can produce 68 billion colors. The lasers project the image on actual photographic material and then it is processed through chemical baths. This gives you a TRUE HIGH DEFFINITON (HD) CONTINUOUS TONE IMAGE with no visible dots like you see in offset lithography printing. This printing method is far superior in detail and color depth than any other reproduction method.
