Hi! I like better original shots. Gaussian Blur can be applied to MF negs. I did it couple of times, and then i got really sharp and smooth pictures for web. Thats more than 10x resize! For 35mm ... better leave grainy version. I am with you this time, Gasha. I also liked the grainy

Following a few suggestions, I applied Gaussian blur to these pix; moved the slider back and forth until the grain was minimized without losing detail. That happened at a radius of 2.5 pixels. Here are the modified shots: http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=3930524

I agree on these Gasha. Overall, I preferred the originals better. Tom C. From: Gasha [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: pentax-discuss@pdml.net To: pentax-discuss@pdml.net Subject: Re: PESO: Harpist revisited Date: Wed, 07 Dec 2005 01:59:53 +0200 I like better original shots. Gaussian Blur

Hello Rick, I have tried to take a few shots of harpists in the past. I rather like what you have done here. I like her face showing through and the concentration in her eyes. I do wish that her hands were more dramatically plucking the strings. It would give a stronger impression of playing

Thanks, Bruce. I focused on the hands, but only got motion blur. I sorta like the way that turned out. And the strings are nice and sharp! Rick --- Bruce Dayton [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello Rick, I have tried to take a few shots of harpists in the past. I rather like what you have
