Any time the starting image is that small, you may get a nice looking result but it may or may not be a good representation of how the individual really looked. There are some good larger images of Harper online (i.e. St. Louis, New York) and I don't think the attached Cincy enhancement looks all that much like them. On the other hand, compared to the original Reds team photo, it's a plausible result.


Also, cap and jersey pinstripes didn't survive the enlargement. It could probably be faked with some more Photoshopping but I got lazy.
