Sports Photography Genre Portfolio Printing Prep

Print preparations according to Print Restrictions
Selected my images for my first set of prints for my portfolio and added minimal enhancing in PSD.
Psd image>Layers> flatten layers> Image>Image size>180 resolution>H21cm >W29.7cm (Set the lesser of the two dimensions but when setting the width alters the height from 21cm to 19.8cm)
> Image>Image canvas>set height to 21cm> select centimeters> select white for canvas extension colour> ok> Image> mode> check RGB colour> check 8 Bits/channel.
Create Print Guide Layer
File> new> title> custom> width 110cm> height 21cm> resolution 180 (make sure that the height and width are set to centimeters and resolution to pixels> background content to white> ok.
Go back to chosen image; Select> all> edit> copy> open print guide layer> edit> paste> move into place with move tool.
Repeat process accordingly and distribute evenly on layer.
Layer> flatten image> file> save as> title> tiff format> save.

Copy to pendrive and arrange for Caroline to print and get advise on colour caste, type of paper and test printing. Which paper type would give preferable colour cast on my print. Create another print layer and select parts of colour contrast extremes and paste on new print layer for print test.
