Yesterday I received a comment/request on my blog post wondering if I could combine all four of the shots of the different seasons of "The Tree" together in one print.

It really made my day, I had been wanting to do that for some time, but I currently don’t have any more wall space in the house, so needed a prospective client for the project.

I took the four photos and combined them, creating one large panorama with a border around each photo. The dimension of each photo is 8x12 and to eliminate the height being too small the total size ended up being 8 x 48.

It looked kinda cool, but that size may be restrictive and the position of the tree in each of the photos didn't really work for me in the finished product.

So, I took the original files of each of the photos and cropped them in vertical 8 x 10 rather than horizontal 8 x 12 and made The Tree the center of each photo. I don't miss the landscape panorama of each photo, the different seasons of the collage all stretched out make the panorama work.

I did a simple black border around each and the finished size of the collage is 12 x 36, much more manageable, it also formats to 8 x 24 which is also a nice size for a smaller space.

I'm thinking a metal print would be spectacular.

Thanks Loretta, hope you like it!
