I just did that with this photo, only it was Kodak Endura Luster and Kodak Endura Metallic. The luster is nice, but the metallic has that WOW factor I had 8x10's printed, and now going to order a larger print for framing, which will be my 1st framed photo for myself

I ordered 8X12s on both papers and on this shot I will go with the E surface paper, not the metallic. Opinions at the office were mixed, but there wasn't enough difference to justify paying extra.

I was a bit disappointed with both prints actually, and need to make some adjustments before I get the final one. I'd like to increase the greens a bit, and improve the detail in the shadows.

I did. I have the paper sample kit. I always order from Mpix. Most of that info is already in this thread.

It emphasizes highlights and shadows, so you may want to do a smaller test on it before spending the money on a large version since this does have a lot of high and low areas.
