R319075M

Because I had clumsily cut off the top of Donce "Pop" Lewis' head when shooting R319075A during the frantic last seconds of the 4x400, I did some creative PhotoShop editing for this "improved" version, by:

1) increasing the canvas size,

2) extending the blue sky, and

3) borrowing Pop's head from a pic earlier in the meet and glueing it onto his body! A little fill here and there and...voila!

It's far from perfect, but it's a big improvement over the hideous original.
