Hi Tina,
For heaven sake just leave it alone! The more you fiddle it with all these 
directions offered you are going to screw-up an excellent photograph!

GO BY YOUR OWN GUT TINA!!!!!!!!!! 99.9% OF THE TIME THAT'S THE BEST 
DIRECTION GIVER YOU'LL EVER HAVE!
CHEERS,
Dr.ted

If I swap the tones, wouldn't that be artificial looking?

Thanks,

Tina
