It wasn't until later that I realized that I had been working with the Costco scan and that I hadn't actually looked at the neg. Yes, indeed...there was more at the bottom on the neg. I have now scanned and replaced the image. The shadow is still truncated, but at least now it's clear it wasn't my framing so much as the curb of the sidewalk! New version: http://www.duke.edu/~ajs2/PAW/2004_34/index.html Original version: http://www.duke.edu/~ajs2/PAW/2004_34/images/main_costcocrop.jpg Moral of the Story: LATFN (aka Look At The @#*&ing Negative). -Aaron PS--Jesse and Nathan suggested cropping in from the left. I see why they suggest it, but I think that I actually prefer it with all the open space of the crosswalk. Still, I wouldn't have thought of doing it the way they suggested, and I learned something from their feedback, so I'm grateful they gave it.
