I've got these two shots set up in my office as 20x30 canvases. (I run my own drafting company so having some nice photos and the ability to say "they're mine" makes for a good talking point outside of work.)
I also have a trio of lone-exposure traffic shots, I took with 35mm about 14 years ago, at home. These are printed 12x18 and individually framed.

Good thread!!
I've got a few limited edition prints of Border Collies (no surprises there! ) but most of the walls are lacking.
I'm actually interested in making a photo wall where I can pin up some of my work that I have printed sitting here in a pile. Anyone got any ideas for a wall, I was thinking maybe a large sheet of some kind of wood, or cork-board or something? Any ideas anyone?
decided to take a photo of one of the walls in my lounge. Taken with phone cam, so quality is crap, but you get the idea

I have about 6 of my photos hanging on the walls. This one is the biggest, 13 x 44 inch print, matted and framed.
Please excuse the reflections in the glass.

I DID have portraits of my 2 children that I took a couple of years ago. Medium Format monos, I shot and processed myself.
But as my wife decided to "purchase" an alleged professional portrait it gets precedence and my shots came down.
Currently using;
Nikon D850
Lotsa other bits.
My wife doesn't allow photos on the walls, so our walls are filled with original artworks (her father was an art collector).
However, in my office, I have been allowed to put up two limited edition prints, one of Dick Johnson's old V8 Supercar, personally signed by him and his co-driver for that year, as well as a personally autographed to me print of Wayne Gardner on his world championship bike.
All my photos are taken with recycled pixels.

It's getting better every day this post.
The photo replies are fabulous!
We don't have many walls due to the open plan nature of my house but the lounge contains a huge original painting of the start of the Sydney to Hobart painted by my dad, the entrance has a large canvas that my husband comissioned for me for my 40th of the three of us, master bedroom has a large original painting over the bed painted by my mother in law and about 20 photos in a variety of frames mostly of my daughter or the three of us most of which I have taken, downstairs lounge has two large framed photos of my husbands 16 foot skiff taken from a helicopter, a photo of my husbands brother who passed 10 years ago and another painting by my mother in law. My daughters bedroom has a large painting painted by my mother in law and her toy room has several canvases that my daughter has painted herself!!
I have a number of my photos, including a panorama I took of Bondi Beach on Boxing Day 2005, which is 1,500mm x 330mm. It was a stitched pano of about 6 images from memory and it gets many great comment from those who see it. The original image below, was actually too wide for a border and I had to reduce it to the standard 1,500mm instead of the original 1,860mm (from memory):
My daughter also wanted a similar scene in her bedroom and so, we gave her this photo for one of her birthdays, also about 1,500mm wide:
I also have these three printed to A3+ which is 485mm x 330mm:
