You might be right in regard to the boy's face at least. I could easily make 
the gradation of tones more gradual, but I probably won't bother. I can't even 
remember how I might have processed this, but I'm fine with it as presented. It 
printed quite well. I gave the father an 8x10, which pleased him. Always good 
to keep up relations with the neighbors. I just posted it, because it had a 
quirky look. It's a point and shoot snapshot and will not live long on my page. 
Thanks for looking.
