Re: Mr Postman
Not quiet delivered as I had to go and collect from the depot.... But instead of jumping in the car and driving down, I walked down last night when I got home. Trying to get my daily steps up, more small steps on the fitness regime.
Downside is I did not realise how big the parcel was... Doh! It was one of my photos that had converted to canvas...it was a big awkward box to carry back. Ha ha...

Re: Mr Postman
Here is it, taking a pic of the canvas did not work very well, so here is the original. Not to everyone's taste, but I liked it, very calm ideal for the front room I thought. My plan is to try and light from the back with LED lighting. It may turn out crap, but i will let you know ha ha, or not as the case my be lol

Re: Mr Postman
Awesome Frankie. I love the silhouette and sunrise/sunset colours.
I have a few myself in that theme, I'm looking forward to moving back into the house and being able to print some of mine and hang them.

Re: Mr Postman
Well as per my post above my LED strip turned up, technology is great, I also ordered some GU10 replacements lamps in L.E.D, they are awesome. As most of the lighting in the house uses GU10 now.
Mega hot lamps are now a thing of the pastfor me (as they run cool well cold to be fair) the energy consumption will be a lot lower and they should last a lot longer.
Anyway back to back lighting the photo, well I have decided to do it do another photo I converted to canvas and I have to say it looks really cool. trouble is, which is ironic! I am having trouble trying to get a photo of it to show you the result lol... .Its just comes out to dark or to light so you cant see the effect, I will keep trying as it really does look very good. As mood lighting it works a treat ha ha

Brill. Got a link for the LEDs ? I need some. How bright are they? Are they the same size as standard GU10s?Frankie wrote:Well as per my post above my LED strip turned up, technology is great, I also ordered some GU10 replacements lamps in L.E.D, they are awesome.

Re: Mr Postman
Sorry for the delay mate I got dragged away, yes they are the real deal, and the strips are really, really bright, I will dig out the link and send them over mate.
Yes direct replacement for the GU 10 fitting, fitted right in, a softer light more warm than daylight but just as much lumens
