Which images work best on Fine Art Textured Papers - Fotospeed | Paper for Fine Art & Photography

[@jonasktew6857]

rewatching these videos again. . . so helpful! thank you for this content--I am learning so much!

I Tend use the William Turner paper for very foggy scenes. The texture of the paper brings a bit of interest in the washed out background in a way that work really well with the subject.

Hi - Do you get delamination / tiny white spots after printing. I struggle with this on William Turner & German Etching ! Hahnemuhle say it's a feature of the paper - I find it renders images useless !

[@stroiman.development]

@@cb9831 I have learned that I need to handle William Turner VERY carefully. I guess its the surface that is easily scratched off. After drying, I frame it immediately, so its protected by the glass. I don’t throw them in a big pile anymore.

Great review! I can vouch for the William Turner...beautiful paper!

[@FotospeedUK]

Glad you enjoy using it.

Just been doing a project for a local shop they wanted of some of the old painted buildings/ doors and windows. After watching this I decided to give the torchon ago as it seemed what I was looking for. I must say by joe it doesn't half do this style of picture justice, The texture melts into the old paints and gives the impression of being a painting as a few have already asked me if I had painted the pictures..

Great walk through Tim

Glad you enjoyed it.

Idea for a video - place a number of similar papers next to each other, exact same lighting, so we can see which papers are neutral, which are warmer and which are cooler. Also, print the same image to all the papers and discuss why some papers may be more suited to that particular image than other papers. Perhaps go against the grain a bit - use the warmer papers to enhance the image.

[@FotospeedUK]

Thank you, we love a video idea!

This was very useful. Thanks. I like to frame my prints without glass - maybe with or without a mount. Getting the paper to lie flat without using mount glue against a backboard is challenging though. I'm finding the William Turner stays quite flat at size A3. Would you have a guess as to which of these textured papers would be best for this aspect please? Maybe it's just paper weight, but I was thinking the texture might also be giving it some stability? Gluing to a backboard - I've never found a trick for getting the paper to align with the board. Even though the 3M photo mount glue says you can move prints around after bringing the 2 surfaces together - it's not true. Thanks in advance

Very useful Tim. When you're doing these paper comparisons are you printing with generic profiles or with custom profiles?

[@FotospeedUK]

I always use custom.

[@califmike2003]

Love the video just what im looking for. I want to print a oil painting portrait look, the image has a very oil painting look with brush strokes, which one of these papers do think would fit best ?

Hello. Which Epson printer would you recommend for home printing on this Fine Art Hahnemühle paper?

[@martinwilsonphoto]

Helpful video again Tim but you’re going to wreck my bank balance with these paper reviews 😩. The german etching looks especially nice and that was a gorgeous image that was printed on it.

[@FotospeedUK]

oh dear! sorry but it is great!

[@cb9831]

Hi - I had a lot of problems with German Etching ( I loved it ) ! BUT !! It delaminates very very easily & leaves tiny white / unprinted spots on the image - Hahnemuhle say its a feature of the paper - I found it problematic for any image other than one that immediately goes into a covered frame & stays there. Some of the other papers did it - but I found Museum Etching the best ! Torchon is quite unique & completely resilient ! Just my experience - might save you some money !

[@brianlaunchbury4491]

Does your view of each of the papers vary according to the printer used?

[@paulbenson3441]

That was an excellent video and gave me a lot to think about. I've only in the past couple of months started to have a small number of my landscape photographs printed out. I haven't invested in a printer yet and I'm currently using professional print shops. The Hahnemuhle papers Museum Etching and German Etching I would like to have test prints done to see if either or both would give me the results I'm looking for. I'm unsure just now if professional print shops are up to speed with the latest papers they have to offer to their customers. I think the Hahnemuhle Museum Etching and German Etching papers might just be what I'm looking for. Many thanks for a great video and Happy New Year.

[@cb9831]

I would go for Museum Etching - I preferred both of these but noticed delamination on the German Etching ( Tiny white spots - especially obvious on larger monotonal areas ) - Hahnemuhle said its a feature of the paper !

[@fredwestinghouse2945]

Another video idea - Despite using ICC profiles, can the colour come out wrong? For example, do some blues come out purple? How do you manage this? This is more about colour management, which may be outside the scope of your company/channel, but it will be very useful if you can suggest a few ideas. Thanks.

[@cb9831]

i tend to find - you will get more of a tendency to colour shift with a rendering intent as Perceptual - as out of gamut colours aren't 'cut' but amended to fit into the gamut range ! Having said that though ! I find that i use perceptual a lot - but I always try both Relative & perceptual for each image !

[@rocketsackcreations]

The video I was looking for! Thank you! I will now download your ebook and just subscribed! I have a question that you might know the answer for: My printer is canon pixma ix6850 wireless a3 inkjet printer - could this work with the Hahnemule papers?

[@rocketsackcreations]

Ah I could not find the ebook, is this still available? :) 😊

[@flol3266]

Timestamps with the name of the paper you are currently talking about, would have been nice.

[@kaneclements7761]

I really enjoyed this and upgrading to 4k gives a far richer understanding of the paper. I might sound a bit churlish, so sorry, perhaps a slower pan over the texture of the paper would be beneficial. With the light set up to throw shadows from the raised parts of the textures it is possible to understand the warp and weft of the paper. Once again. great episode.

[@FotospeedUK]

Thank you for the tip, I'll try to keep this in mind.

[@Webrisernl]

what do you think of Bartya? I always let my photo's print in Bartya because Iove it... but there are so many other fine art paper I never tried or saw... is there any fine-art paper you can recommend for my famlily images on our wall?

[@jcjensenllc]

5:46 off subject. Please get to the point faster. Also, please don't hand hold the prints - too much motion. Show them straight on full frame. We dont need to see you, its about the prints; rght? We really can't tell the difference unless you do full frame side by side comparing two or more different papers.

[@skultunadesignofsweden3077]

Great and informative videos, but far too long for those of us who don't have whole days to spend on KZbin. Trying to fast-forward...
