The flare is not so obnoxious in this new print. I didn't mean to put you donw, just the use of digital on apug. We all do a little tweaking fo the prints, but I don't sharpen, I just adjust the levels to get it to match the print. Various monitors will pick it all up differently. I nearly choked on my protein drink when I saw it. My husband had to come out and see what I was laughing about. It could be a com[panion image to the one and oly nude I ever had nerve enough to do.

You really do need to use the unsharpmask when scanning images, since you lose sharpness in the scanning process. I think what some object to is the "selective" sharpening that you used, you probably wouldn't have gotten the same reaction if you sharpened the entire image at the same level.

Unfortunately, the sharpening issue is distracting from the quality of the image. I think the image has a bit of humor to it, which is what attracts me to it.

It is a very funny image and made me laugh too. I needed it. Now, if I can just stop the possible captions that keep running through my head!
