Hi Cotty the things I do not like in this picture have nothing to do with the picture size or JPG compression. It's the noise remove process on the skin and the retouching errors and more like the two spotlights that I dislike. A healthy child's skin and face really should not need any "beautifying" with a denoiser, that's something for us older men ;-) greetings Markus
