It appears slightly improved to my eye;
but I can't seem to raise the original for comparison.

My eye does not jump "back and forth"
(which drives me crazy in many compositions - especially symmetrical  
ones)
but rather keeps swirling about this fine composition
(which is what I look for in a solid asymmetrical composition).

George Lottermoser
