I believe Peter Lik often uses a 6x17cm film camera. Not sure if he scans
and prints on a plotter of "really" prints in a darkroom. I guess the former
though, so he can further tweak colors.

What software might be used to make a print that big?
How would they print it at that size?

For what it's worth, and in my opinion, based on there being a Peter
Lik gallery 15 minutes walk from me, I would offer that they do look
better as prints, improved even moreso under the gallery's lighting. I
would actually say they are quite awesome, without using that word as
a simple throwaway for "really good". I'm not greatly into his style
of photography, but I am most impressed when seeing his photos at full
size.

I can honestly say that I have never seen photos on display like in the
Peter Lik gallery. With the special lighting around a sunrise (or sunset)
photo of a natural arch it really looked like the sun was rising or setting
over the image, even though no backlit was used. While the gallery manager
turned the lighting up more and more details and colors became visible. The
print was about 8ft wide an 3ft high. It certainly had the WOW factor for
me. At $7.500,- (IIRC) for the print alone it was way out of reach though,
albeit worldwide shipping was included ;-)).
