Thanks, Nathan.  These were made with the 10MP E-510, after I tried to crop 
some 5MP E-1 images yesterday, which turned out to be losers.  Ken Norton 
says the anti-aliasing filter of the E-1 hurts the resolution, so I lose 
both from that and low pixel count when I try to tightly crop a distant 
subject.
