I set out to capture some evening light and bokeh among these grasses. I was quite pleased with this result and am thinking about making a canvas print. I've never had one done before. Any thoughts about whether or not this sort of shot would work well for that?

    i think this is a beautiful photograph.
    if your going to print i would do a square crop....
    lots of nothing over there on the right.....but include the little guy on the bottom mid center...
    basically keep most of the left half

    how big of a canvas?

    Thanks!

    Here's a 16x20 crop. What do you think of that?

    Hi there Elaine, the forground of the grasses catching the light really stand out, and you have achieved a nice Bokeh for your background too.

    I prefer the second crop of the image myself thumb.gif .... Skippy :D

    Oooh, grass! Beautiful. iloveyou.gif I DEFINITELY like the second crop - good call, AN!

    I'd be tempted to try blurring the background just a little bit more - the highlight edges are distractingly sharp, and I can see some grain near the top.
