    It feels very off balance to me.. falling to the left.

    It all seems to be on left side....Would it be better if the main picture was more on the right to even it out? Is that what you mean by off balance?

    Lynie......I like the first version...but this one is different......noise , no noise.....it is a matter of the vision you have.....I sometimes go into m PS filters and add film grain to "enhance" the pixel noise....it is a matter of your taste and that of the clients...if she was happy with the first version then that would have been my final version...if she asked why is this so grainy themn I might have opted to change......but now you have tried and used Neat Image and seem to like it...that is good as reducing noise for enlargements (above 11 X 14 or 16 x 20 depending on camera) can really make the difference....unless again your vision and your clients are about the agrainy look...and it does work in some Huuuuuge prints (for me Huuuuuge = above 20 x 24" )

    I HATE grainy photos...To me it (in my opinion) makes the photo lack quality, I love crisp images...Some things, yes do look good grainy, but I don't know, like you said it's all for a matter of taste. The girl liked it prior to any post processing, however, I feel since she is a co-worker, she just didn't want to give me an honest opinion or would *settle* for what I first had. I don't like to settle and am often my worst critic, so I always try to go that extra step further to make it better... Sometimes, I go to far...I love your guy's comments...please let me know if there is anything else you would suggest.....:D
