Default Potential 24'' x 36'' canvas print picture...C&C please!

Im thinking of making an enlarged print of 20'' by 30'' at my local costco to see how this image enlarges. If it turns out good i'll then make a 24'' x 36'' canvs print of it...I'm just looking for some last minute CC as I have edited this image at least 20 times! If anyone can spot something I need to fix please LMK before I spend a ton of money only to see a mistake hanging on my wall. I'll lose the watermark of course...(This would be my first ever large canvas) Thanks!!!

Just my opinion but I think canvas's are better suited to brighter, more colourful images. This would probably look better on a metallic paper.

Nice image by the way, would love to see it without the watermark but totally understand.

Good Point! most canvas prints I see are of well lit shots. I just saw for the first time today, a metallic print in a local art gallery. It was a night shot of Lava flowing into the ocean with shooting stars in the background (Sky). I'll definitely consider the metallic print. Costly though I assume?

Couldn't tell you I'm sorry.

As far as preparing it for printing, make sure your lab can provide you with a profile that you can soft-proof against. When output sharpening, do so at 100% and slightly oversharpen.

Go for it, nothing is more satisfying than seeing some of your own art on the wall, esp. big!

Nice photo indeed.
I completely agree, it would look better on a dibond, rather than on canvas, although I am not a fan of canvas in general.

Good work, hope you make it.

This would look great as an aluminium or acrylic print!

In the first one what are the streaks on the left?
I like the second one better - is it 3 images composited?

Not to sure about the streaks...Maybe part of my watermark...
Both 1 & 2 are single RAW images taken with a 7d and Tokina 11-16mm f2.8 then edited in Adobe Lightroom 4 (non-composite)

Sorry I already stole it... clone-stamped out the WM. enhanced it. and made the sale to the Chinese as we speak. Good game though!..........







Just kidding! I like these.. although I have no clue what they would look like printed being that a darker image takes more INK and therefore will cost more. however.. I really like the crosswind! it pulls all of the Tree's. the Clouds and the Dust to the right. Quite interesting in low light and very consistent.
