Hi ParkertR, Lifeworld, Club_de_oldman, MyFZ1,

Thanks for the comments.....I like "The Stare" best.....love the eyes!

I used 12x as correctly pointed out and cropped tightly....The 4MP allows me to crop it without lost of resolution. The original photos are something like this:



So I cropped it, PS it, by levels, contrast and USM and do the frames and all that. As you can see, by cropping, one and decide the composition that you want, and that is something one cannot always do when taking the picture.
