Thanks, Marnie. I do like your crop, but for some reason (it just looks better to me?) I like my crop a bit better. I like that yours gets rid of some of the worst distortion on the right side of the frame (I already cropped from the left, leaving the 16mm "semi-fisheye distortion on one side only, so it isn't balanced). On my crop I like that the man in the hat is off-centre and I like that there's one extra gal chatting on the bench. It's a close call, but like I said, as much as I like your crop I do like mine a bit better. Thanks for looking, commenting and suggesting! cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
