As I said earlier, I like this new version much better. But because I have no problem either cropping or doing anything else necessary to get the result I want, I would have taken this a step further and cloned out the remainder of the redcoat on the far right of frame. It's a simple PhotoShop job. About five minutes work.

Based on some comments received WRT the original post, I've fiddled
around with it (mostly cropped a bit but also slightly different
levels adjustments):

For your reference, here's the "original":

Waddya think?  Better, worse, same, indifferent either way?  How would
you have cropped the original?  Much as I don't like to crop, this is
one that requires it, so I'd be interested to know (since I so rarely
crop, I'm not very good at it).

Thanks for your input!

cheers,
