Aside of the image in question, As a 11x14 or larger, sharpness would polarize me.... It is interesting to note that in the early days of photography, sharpness was obviously important. The early shots of Civil War battle scenes or even camps, were amazingly sharp ( helped by movements, but let's forget how and concentrate on results). Later we have the romantic photographs pre-AA and the F64 Group that emulated impressionist paintings... Then AA goes back to sharpness. Then there is the LOMO, followed by the M9 and Bob's ALPA. It is a wild ride..... Frank Filippone Red735i at verizon.net I also have doubts how it would look in a decent size print.
