Hi there, I have done what I think is a stunning shot of a Venice backstreet
(canal) made of 4 A3 prints, so it ends up as a very large poster.
I think the trick is to allow yourself enough overlap so that you can cut
with a scalpel to a convenient detail edge, rather than having a hard print
edge, which is always noticeable. You need to slightly angle the scalpel so
you are undercutting and not ending up with a white edge to the paper. If
your photo has some good vertical and horizontal details to cut to, you'll
never see the join. Mind your fingers though, don't want red all over the
print!
Cheers
Andrew
