Agree, of course, but it's not for us.  ;-)

Have you ever done (or had done) photo prints on
canvas?  If so, what's your impression. I'm
not sure, in fact, I can't remember ever seeing
one. Don't really see much point too it, but it's
a request, so I thought I'd ask before I test it out.

Thanks.

>>Definitely do not like the way the water renders in this example.

The beauty of these images, IMHO, rests in the photographic-reality of 
subjects surface qualities, along with the light; all relying on reflections 
and "proper" texture.
and
The compositions of course.
