Another excellent shot and a great interpretation. I'm sure this will do well come voting time. You are really giving that iPhone a great workout. Regards, -Najinsky.

paul, the smoothing i mentioned is not global -- it's just done w a small brush using the smudge tool on places where it's needed. yes, it is great to use gaussian blur on a duplicate copy of an image and then, using a mask, reveal just the areas where you want the image to be sharper, using the brush with the appropriate opacity. (ed got a big laugh over your comment, too!!) shu

I was going to say "those are some mighty sexy legs you have there shu" then I noticed the guy "ED" sitting at the table was checking you out. Or was he thinking "is it time to go yet"? I'm sure you already know this but for smoothing work, guassian blur is your friend. Paul

fyi, the entire image was put through a topaz labs filter just to sharpen and brighten the mirrors and then a mask was attached and just the brick wall was brought back to the original image. shu

don't bother! i spent two hours cloning and smoothing. i'm afraid someone will see my shoddy work. thanks for the compliment tho. shu
