Christmas Card 2022

I took this photograph, of beams of sunlight through passing through misty woodland with autumn leaves, in Tunstall Forest, Suffolk, way back in 2010. It has been a close runner up for my Xmas card photo in many years since, almost being a tie for top in 2021. So, at last, it comes to the top.

Camera = Panasonic TZ5.

The border was a duplicate of last year's.

Downloads

• Photograph in screen resolution (as above).
• Photograph in original full resolution for printing.
• Border in original LibreOffice Draw format.
• Border converted to PDF format.

Card assembly instructions to duplicate the original:

1. Get the full resolution photograph printed at 6"x4.5" on photographic paper.
2. Print the border using a laser printer (or print once and duplicate by photocopier) on A4 160 g/m² white cardboard.
3. Fold the printed cardboard into an A5 greetings card with one straight crease.
4. Glue (or double sided selotape or similar) the photograph to the card in the correct orientation. Take care not to make the photograph too soggy.

Printing the border & photograph together on a normal colour printer does not give as good results and gives a more mass-produced look.
