Thanks for the comments, Yoram, There are several things about the photo that I wanted to preserve, primarily the open space and the dimensions. But that meant leaving in the area with the white tablecloth, which is a distraction. John's suggestion was to go for the head shot, and that is attractive. Another suggestion, from a friend, was to burn in the tablecloth and make it less obtrusive. Again, thanks, Ken ---------------------------- Ken Frazier kennybod@xxxxxxx
