photographs (and 2010 icon choice)

[mellowtigger]

Which of these two small images below would make the best choice for my new icon?

I tend to favor the first one for the better color tone, but the second one probably has the better facial expression.

I have a new photo gallery available here.  They are pictures taken during the recent visit by my parents to the Twin Cities.  Here are the photographs.  Click to embiggen.





Although group shots worked out fairly well, all of the attempts to photograph me solo would end up getting overexposed.  Attempts to compensate (with camera settings) caused low exposure of everything else in the image, and compensating (with software) for that issue then caused strange colored skin tones.  I'll leave the analysis to the shutterbugs.

I think this one satisfies the smile and coloring you liked. :o)
