db, I think you and me are the only people in this planet that think "sharpness" is a bit overrated.

Yes, I can see that the glasses would be problematic with the sharpening. I too usually don't go for supersharp images either. This is beautiful as it is too. ~ Lonnit

Lonnit: Generally, I prefer under- to oversharpening. Because while an undersharpend picture just lacks a bit of punch, an oversharpened one looks often somewhat artificial. I *did* sharpen this picture quite a bit; and I think the frame of the glasses does not allow for much more. But I do understand what you mean. Thanks for commenting! — db.

Very nice! I'd love it sharpened up b/c of the great character in the face. ~ Lonnit
