Did someone say they wanted more pics?

If anyone wants high-res versions, I have now uploaded the full-res 4282x2848 300dpi 12 megapixel spherically-corrected versions to flickr here:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/31055544@N05/sets/72157622990975242/ . They are quite a lot sharper, but they are also around 2 megabytes each. I used DxO Optics to do a batch process on the 11-16mm shots to make spheres (human heads) near the edges look round again. This causes some cropping which can't be avoided. It also makes some straight lines into curves. You can magnify like crazy if you click on "all sizes" and look at the "original" size. The lights in the hat are a good example to try this on.
In the process of doing this update, I deleted the existing uncorrected photos on flickr.
This might break quoted messages, so please edit your post and fix the link if you want your quote to have a picture in it. Next time I will just post another whole set instead of breaking the old one.
My favorite photo is the last one in this posting. I need to take more photos of people in order to get better at it. Been practicing mostly on natural subjects the past year.
Nice hat - looks a bit uncomfortable with all that metal in it.

No overt signs of flashaholism
Definitely a flashaholic - more lights are under false bottom of case!
