Help appreciated.

I want to get the picture that I took below printed on to canvas.



The problem comes that I want the image to be seen exactly like it is here.
Every website that I have viewed with regard printing this onto canvas folds the image over the frame, therefore cutting the Walkie Tower (tall building on left for non Londoners) in half, losing the appeal of the picture for me.

Any suggestions as to how I can:
a) alter the image
b) approach about printing what I want

Any help appreciated.
Rob

Plenty of places will mirror the border rather than folding the main image. I can recommend Trade Canvas Print

Thank you.
I may have seen that option on Hello Canvas too.
I will investigate now.

I work for www.canvashut.com and deal with this sort of thing day in, day out.

We'll have no problem printing it without cutting bits of the image off. Plenty of ways to go about, some already mentioned. We could mirror the sides or leave them blank or with a colour (black?) if preferred. Most of the time we take a small amount of bleed and use it to continue the colour around the sides of the canvas. For this image I would probably suggest mirroring though.

I've dropped the image into a 20x30 template to show you some examples. Inside the blue guides is the front face, outside would be the sides.

Mirrored -



Continued bleed -



Stick with 3:2 ratio sizes to avoid any cropping of the image. 8x12, 12x18, 16x24, 20x30, 24x36 etc.
