Blunder w.r.t. Canadian Visa photo

• How do you think there can be some difference between Visa photo clicked at Hyderabad and Bangalore when the embassy and the specifications are same?
• Can I say I've come to the right place, the best in Bangalore as they say and still get the wrong photograph?
• Earlier there has been a case-the visa was rejected. Why should i suffer because of your fault?

The above are the few of the many things that I had to shell out apart from money at the photographer's shop when I got the Canadian Visa pic on a "matt" paper. One of my colleagues had confirmed that for her travel to Canada, the travel agent had asked her to get the pics on "glossy" paper as the Visa might get rejected. (The third question above was little far stretched to get the point across ;) )
So finally, gave the order for the Canadian Visa pics to be re-done on a glossy paper.

The specifications for Canadian Visa Photograph are given at http://www.vfs-canada.co.in/photospecifications.html

Apart from this, keep in mind

• The photo should have your face clear
• The photo should have a light background
• The Canadian Embassy wants the negative along (maybe its the only embassy that asks for a negative). So be sure to take the negative even if the photographer denies.
• The photograph should be on a "glossy" paper. Glossy paper is the one which is very common and is soft to touch. The other kind of paper used is "matt" which has rough surface
• Get sufficient photos done as you don't know how many you require and when and where.
