    If I could read the phone, the picture would tell the story instead of the title.
    Maybe a tighter crop would help.

    I can only say one word, crop.:D
    I took your original and made a crop with some PS and Noise Ninja to it.
    But I don't know if NN is allowed.
    This was a quick fix, I'm sure you could do better.

    the pics is here: http://www.pbase.com/davev/image/50139715
    If you wish, I will delete it.

    No, please don't delete it. In fact, you can inline it in your post. I do it to people here all the time and they do it to me. It's one of the things I like about this place compared to others.

    It's a very nice crop. Very nice. I didn't see how to do that and keep the context.

    But I don't thinking this kind of cropping is allowed for this challenge. Still, it makes a much better shot. Thanks for the idea!

    I must have missed that 'minor' cropping part.
    Now I have go re-look at my pic in the challenge. I'm pretty sure
    that I changed a hor. to a vert. by cropping.

    Oh well.

    i'll probably change this for the next non-pp challenge - cropping in the darkroom, was light or severe ... depending on the situation. the only time NO CROPPING at all is allowed is when we have either: wide-angle challenge, or a "get it right 100% at shoot" challenge :D

    I looked, and changed to a different pic.

    The Hijack is now over.

    Glad to be of service. And that crop is great. I'm going to use, just not for the challenge.
