I decided to through this here, because it seems to me that more 'serious' photograpghers tend to pop in and out. I'm really just curious. I posted this one and got about the score I expected. Several people commented on the over-satureated background. My friend Alan was kind enough to do a rework which you can see here. I was surprised that his rework only picked up 4 points as I thought his backround was far superior. If you would be so kind as to take a look at each and maybe let me know which you prefer and why.

PS - Please note, I am NOT crabbing about the c-index either picture recieved, i am just looking for some feedback as to the variations of two pictures.

Thanx,
