Kirk,

If you did not tone it, what did you put on it? It almost looks like you painted with a brush, given the one brush stroke outside the grill area on the left. To me it looks more like a Golden Oak.

I was wondering why yours looked so much lighter than others I have seen. It also looks more correct.
