Actually, on the web I agree with you too, Nathan.
The print of workshop images is really beautiful, but I don't think I should 
have cropped it. I'm going to apply the changes I made to the cropped 
version to the uncropped version, print and compare.
Thanks for lending your good eyes to it.
Best,
Bob

Hi Bob,

Sorry to say, but I find the pre-workshop image better in the case of the 
first pair, although in the second pair the "after" version looks better.

All IMO of course :-)

Cheers,
Nathan
