Jack,

I just didn't understand what your expression was trying to characterize: it seemed to be saying something about the nature of displaying a photo on a flatscreen LCD display vs a CRT display.

Godfrey,
It's difficult to verbally identify an individual's
visual anomaly. My sole attempt is to describe it is
an appearance of edge "crumbling" or "glitter".
Your "brittleness" adjective is well taken with
respect to this image. I think I implied my reluctance
to have gone quite so far as was done, but, as stated,
am fine with it.

Nice shot.

It is slightly oversharpened. This is a common
problem with high
frequency images that have many small edges in them.
The resulting
effect is one of "brittleness" in the fine textures.

I'm not sure what Jack is referring to with regard
to "flat screens
emphasizing edge pixelation".

John,
It just has more snap than is usually seen. I
appreciate your reasoning and I would have

approached

that level as well. The presentation is always the
shooter's choice.
I like the 'look' on my monitor.
What few flat screens I've seen, seem to emphasize
edge pixelation which may explain some sharpening
criticisms.

Jack,
I expanded the range slightly using levels,

unsharp

mask at 80,.5.1 and
resized it with bicubic sharper for the web.  I
wanted to retain all the
detail I could in those rock faces.  Is that too
much, or not enough.  I
am a not a beginner which makes me slightly
dangerous.  Sort of like a 5
year old with a knife in his hand.

The ocean is at my back and the crevass you see

goes

down about 15
feet.  I am still trying to figure out how to

take

a picture of that.

Thank you for the remarks

John G.
