Sorry Pat,

I did'nt notice there was a newer post to this.

It's just a guess, but I'll bet you got into the flow with this one - it seems to come through the piece. Or am I totally wrong??
Only up to a certain point. I was concerned about the size of her chest. I made it a little smaller and tried not to attract attention to it. I did more erasing than usual. I could'nt go much smaller because it would not be a true portrait of her. I had other pictures of Kara, and this was, I felt, the easiest pose to have her chest blend into the picture.

Thanks.
