Could you post pics in higher resolution?

I know a lot of opera recordings where soloist sound like that... so I got used to it - I guess it is because they sing very distant form the mic? And we are used to proximity effect of the close recorded voices? I am not sure about that - but that kind of solo vocal sound can be found on many highly regarded opera and other vocal recordings where larger ensembles with vox soloists are involved. Maybe someone else can elaborate on that? And another thing - on the realistic listnening levels - that means - "be afraid of the fortissimo" - the effect is not so audible - vocalists sound natural... Maybe just my psyche...
