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,
