These were shot as RAW and the same settings used for each conversion. I then cropped, enlarged and saved for web, also keeping settings the same. To crop I used the method Jostein used yesterday, set rulers to pixels, draw a crop box correctly sized and then align it. Nothing was done in PS after the conversion except the crop, resize and save for web at full size and 60%. I can put the RAW files up for d'load if you'd like to play with them.
