Re.re. etc etc man in turban (ping Joske)

You drive a hard bargain Ms. Joske!

As I said, I was pretty much satisfied with the first one I posted, but
wanted to see, as you must have, what more detail at the mouth would do.

Feel free to download it and play with it all you wish. I think "the eye of
the beholder" thing has us stymied.

If someone else doesn't like the turban, etc. I could end up making a career
out of this one image 8-)

But sometimes you just have to be, just to work up that extra bit
the plugin doesn't treat fairly :-)

Well that was just my taste, as I said it was an interesting subject
and the plugin did it justice overall apart from the mouth. I hope
you like it better this way too, but... how am I going to say this?
:-) Now that the mouth has more detail, the eyes just sort of seem
to be begging for it as well.

Big grins on this end... sorry, Ab :-) I saw the original photo in
the meantime. My idea is that this is an Afghan gentleman with pain
in his eyes. I will respect that, or whoever and in which
circumstances he is, and not 'play' with him. You are of course
right, and even my interpretation is from the eye of the beholder
:-)
