Thanks, Mischa and Richard.

And thank you, Chris, that's very helpful. Chris, I wonder if you might tell me what it is about the photo that looks distorted? I'm sure you are right that there is distortion, but my eye is not trained enough to see it.

The lens might be a problem, too. I have a Kodak EasyShare DX6490, and it does have a "Portrait" setting, but I didn't have enough light to use it--I used the "Night" setting so I could make use of the natural light.

Thank you for your help (by the way, I learned a lot from your book Painting Beautiful Skin Tones with Color and Light.
