Thanks Allan, Jane, Geary, and Jean:

Your insights are all valid and helpful. Allan, the posted photo may be a little washed out. The shadows in the shirt are slightly stronger than they appear. Jane, I haven't taken the close-ups yet. The reference photo was kind of blurry. Geary and Jean, you are so right; the frame bothered me too. I think it's fixed now. I muted FDR and Churchhill about 5%, and strengthened the judge's hair 5%. Now there is a clear separation of space. Allan, perhaps I need to sharpen up the elephant picture (you can tell which political party appointed him).

Thanks!!
