Epson has teamed up once again with Bayeux, one of London’s leading
photographic and imaging companies, to sponsor and support the prestigious ‘Take
a view’ Landscape Photographer of the Year 2011 Competition.
The overall winner was Robert Fulton - Winter Field, Stirlingshire, Scotland.
His image and all the finalists’ photographs can be viewed on the Take a view
website: http://www.take-a-view.co.uk . A free exhibition at London’s National
Theatre from 5th December 2011 to 28th January 2011 will showcase all the
winners, together with other selected finalists.
Bayeux produced limited edition Digigraphie prints for the exhibition on
Traditional Photo Paper, one of Epson’s range of art media, with the Epson
Stylus Pro 9900 large format printer. Using the latest Epson inkjet technology,
the Stylus Pro 9900 is the ideal choice to reproduce the winning images in their
full glory. The photographs’ true colours are realised using Epson UltraChromeTM
HDR ink, which adds orange and green ink to Epson’s UltraChromeTM K3 with Vivid
Magenta to deliver the widest gamut available. An outstanding level of detail is
acheived with the Stylus Pro 9900’s 10-channel Epson MicroPiezo TFPTM print head
and Variable-sized Droplet Technology.
“We are pleased to be involved with the awards again,” said Robin Bernard,
Director, Bayeux and one of the final panel judges. “With the Stylus Pro 9900 we
know that we can reproduce the photographers’ images consistently and as true to
the originals as possible.”
Nick White, Sales Manager, Pro Graphics, Epson UK and also a competition judge
said. “The entries were all fabulous and the winners captured a superb
combination of colours, textures and light effects.”
