Following on from the breeders vinyl banners posted yesterday, now available to order online - http://www.niigata-nishikigoi.com/node/1701 - we will soon be releasing a series of Koi variety banners featuring some of the awesome Koi that have graced the All Japan Show over the last few years.

The images below are just examples utilising images that i had to hand from the 2013 show.

Keep an eye out for the final versions coming in the next few days.

 I mentioned yesterday about the forgotten print - http://www.niigata-nishikigoi.com/node/1700 - and also the fact that a number of  'photo' products would be forthcoming.

I'm pleased to introduce the first, 45" x 18" vinyl banners, ideal for hanging around a hobbyists pond, or even more so for decorating a dealers premises.

Each banner features a 30" x 18" image along with the breeders name and the kanji for Nishikigoi.

The banners can be customised to include a dealers logo in place of the kanji characters.

As standard each banner comes with corner eyelets.  Alternatively a vinyl extension can be included at the top, bottom and sides to enable a variety of fixings, for example to a wooden frame or top and bottom hangers.

The standard banners are just £15 each, plus postage and packing using Philippines Post EMS service.

You can order the banners using the 'add to cart' button beneath each image.  Upon receipt of your order we will contact you to confirm postage costs and any specific requirements.

Looking for something different?  Our archive or images is one of the most extensive anywhere in the world, mail with your requirements.

 As a photographer there is nothing better than seeing your images in print, the bigger the better.

Nowadays most images stay locked away on hard drives or other storage media never to see the light of day, for many pictures that's the best place for them!

Most of my archive of images is never seen to its full potential, just resized images shown on the web.  What a waste!

With large empty wall spaces in my new office, and frequent requests of prints of pictures, now is the time to set my image archive free.

I will soon be offering a range of images for sale, printed on highest quality Canon archival papers in A3+ size (19"x11").

If there is any image you've see on this site then it is probably suitable for printing, just ask.

We will also be offering a range of other exciting 'photo' products in the near future.

p.s. the pic below is taken on cellphone

 Back in November I was given the opportunity by Masaru Saito, aka Shintaro, to select 10 tosai Showa, then just 4 months old.

Whilst in Japan for the 1st International Junior Koi Show - http://www.niigata-nishikigoi.com/node/1697 - last month I got chance to see the tosai for the last time before they will go to the mud pond for the summer.

There were several aspects to the project, the excitement, challenge and opportunity to select some Koi at such a young age.  Ultimately the objective was to get 1 good Koi, hopefully a really good one.  I fully anticipated that by know some would have gone wrong, or even died.

The good news is that all 10 are still alive, albeit only 8 pictured here, and that all still have all 3 colours!

You can see previous pics by looking back at the archive - http://www.niigata-nishikigoi.com/archive - from November.

A full round up on these tosai along with hopes for the future will appear in Nishikigoi Digest International which is in the final stages of production.

In the meantime the pics of the 8 taken 22nd April.
