[Leica] scanning fever

[Mark Rabiner]

The big dark mounting really has an edge effect around it somehow either
from the way its lit or your sharpening or both or neither. But I think its
the first two. I'd think of different applications i.e. print sizes you'd
sharpen it defiantly. For use on paper with a bit of unfortunate texture to
it  you might sharpen the bloody hell out of it as it'd need it.
To me .. Here looks great! I think its a solid "wow" shot!
