Digital BW, The Print

Todd, this is useful stuff, but I would like to see the histograms of the
two image crops- how much actual difference is there in these two crops?

Having said that, I think I can see differences, but...  Having said that, I
don't think that jpegged crops are the final answer either.  Unfortunately,
only full size prints will reliably show the differences or not.  (How about
a print exchange?)

Wow, I'm on a roll, that's a great idea!

Todd, I had a look at your excellent page on "Combing" and I have
noticed one flaw in your suggestions. If you check the histograms
for the two resulting pictures you will see that they neither show
any sign of "Combing" I think that you removed it when you converted
to jpg for the web. How about a segment of the image before the
final step so we might see the actual comparison? Maybe you could
post them to the Files section of the forum.
