As official inkjet printer and paper partner of the 2012 Nature\u2019s Best Photography International Awards, Epson recently produced large-scale photographic prints for display at the Smithsonian\u2019s National Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C.<\/p>\n

The winning entries in one of the world\u2019s most prestigious nature photography competitions\u2014selected from more than 20,000 entries by photographers in 47 countries\u2014were reproduced using Epson\u2019s 1.1-m (44-in.) wide Stylus Pro 9900 piezoelectric inkjet printer and UltraChrome high dynamic range (HDR) inks.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith the help of imagemakers in the field, we are able to display an extraordinary photographic journey from the wild to the walls of the Smithsonian,\u201d says Steve Freligh, the director of the Windland Smith Rice International Awards. \u201cUsing exhibition-quality technology, the images of wildlife and habitats are brought to life, allowing visitors to experience an up-close connection to nature through large-format prints.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 48-print exhibition opened on March 30 and is scheduled to run through January 6, 2013, for free viewing by the public. It features prints ranging from 0.6 x 0.9 m (2 x 3 ft) to nearly 1.2 x 1.8 m (4 x 6 ft), including the grand prize winner, Federico Veronesi\u2019s Cape Buffalo Fight (pictured, left), snapped in Kenya; conservation photographer of the year Thomas D. Mangelsen\u2019s Polar Bears (left), taken in Manitoba; the youth photography of the year; and finalists in 15 separate categories.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re delighted our technology is employed in support of science and conservation,\u201d says Rick Day, professional imaging product manager for Epson. \u201cWe\u2019re able to depict the true colour and intensity of each of the photos, so visitors feel as if they can fall right into the scenes.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
