Thank you Jer, much appreciated. This is a close crop from a 14MP original. I try to keep my posted images at 1200x800 pix so that the website doesn't compress them and degrade the IQ. It's always a challenge to decide what to keep and what to crop. I could've selected a larger portion of the frame and downsized it to 1200x800 with the imaging software, but I think you lose some IQ doing that. At least with the software I use. In Bryan Peterson's book 'Understanding Composition', he says that it's OK to move in close and cut off the top of people's head to get close intimate portraits. I guess this 'portrait' falls into that category.
I put a 1920x1080 crop version on our computer desktop which my wife likes.
