Well, I don't want to get into the whole HCB and cropping thing (again) <vbg>. Suffice to say, he did it, but rarely. I think in his old age he didn't like to admit it, but then he said a lot of things in his old age that were a bit off the wall. Anyway, thanks, Juan. Now that they're both blown up, I like this one better than the breakdancing one. I think that my initial prejudice toward the latter stemmed from the fact that at the time I took them, I really thought the dancing one would be wonderful, and that this one was really just a "throwaway". It took me a while to admit that the "throwaway" is the stronger of the two images. thanks again, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
