Mike,
I used LR 2 to give me a 1:1 ratio and that\'s what I cropped the image onto. I exported that file as jpg medium and sharpened for web presentation. I set the quality to about 75% to minimze the jpg artefact but still within the allowable size limit for FM. I took it as a compliment that you didn\'t buy that it was a 100% crop .
Sorry, I still confused!
The vertical distance from the eye to the centre of the lips is 113 pixels in the \"whole image\" but 264 pixels in the \"100% crop\" That\'s only a 2.3 fold enlargement. If the whole image resized as posted is 530 pixels high, then the crop at 530 pixels high should be a 6.3x enlargement if the \"true\" size is 3328.
What am I missing - a 100% crop is pixel for pixel the same as the original size, right?
