Frank,
I prefer the original. Or actually, somewhere in between to be quite
honest. The "improved" version is overly sharpened and saturated,
leaving many of the details and tonal range messed up, IMO. Nice pic tho.

As a result of an off-list discussion, I modified this one that I
initially posted yesterday, in two ways:
First, on the original, I sharpened only the jumper, and not the
background, with the result that the background is more OOF-looking
than on the print. On Version 1.1 I've sharpened the whole frame.
Second, I fiddled with levels a bit to darken it. I now think that
the original looks over-bright and over-exposed.
Let me know if you have a preference. I certainly prefer the
"improved" version:
