You are absolutely right about the sharpness Cotty. I did cheated a bit by blurring it just a little. It was shot handheld at 1/50, I may have moved a bit despite my monopod. I have other takes, but the expression on her face is best in this one. Perhaps blurring it a bit more would have been a better approach. I didn't, now it's online "as is" ;-)
