Specific Retouch after resize photo

[ritm]

I want to print my photos in a larger format (I think 120cm x 80cm), in the form of a picture / poster that I would like to frame and hang as a picture on the wall.
I am looking for help in improving the quality of the photo, so that it does not sting too much in the eye and hangs on the wall.
Can I ask for help? Thank you and best regards, Bartek

Oh boy! It's awesome. It's possible to desaturated this two examples from you to this form? All around grey, only Jordan and ball in original colour? 211dpi will be fine to print in 120cm x 80cm format?


THANKS A LOT

Just a note - what you're referring to is PPI - pixels per inch. That's how the resolution of an image is calculated.
DPI is dots per inch - that's how an image is printed. Pixels = image, dots = ink. Use a magnifying glass to look at an image in a publication. What you'll see is dots.
For the best resolution for your poster, you want an image size as close as possible to the printed size and in a resolution of 300ppi.
Then again, it depends how close you'll viewing the print image. If it's on a wall and you'll be standing several feet away, then the 211 would be ok. If you're viewing up close and want finer detail, then you go for the higher resolution.
it's something constantly debated. Dont mean to confuse - just wanted to clarify.

Desaturated, darkened with curves and blurred the background.

Since we are here in the free request area - no.

If you had communicated this wish beforehand, it would not have been a problem.

Maybe one of the other users will take care of the matter.

I worked on one of the files that @[ iLLuSioN ] had supplied, masked out and turned background into b/w.
You can download the file here: https://we.tl/t-SHSILU6s6n

Here's a thumbnail of what I provided:



Thank you to @[ iLLuSioN ] for putting in the initial work.
