It's amazing, but now that I look at the two again, yours is "lighter" looking (note: I'm not saying "brighter"). Somehow, not seeing the end of the pier makes the photo look very oppressive to me. Seeing it opens it up a great deal to my eyes. So, I can see why Jon Paul would have the impression that you brightened it... cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
