Jerome,

Beautiful. Like the mood, contrast, and sharpness. I wish I could see at a larger size.

All

Thank you for the comments. Yes, Vahid, I will post a larger image. These smaller images are nicer and kinder for the folks that still use dial-up connections.

Dial-up

Jerome, I'm sometimes viewing the site using a dial-up connection (56k), and in my experience 600 pixels wide is not a problem at all. As long as you keep the file size below 200 kB, 900 wide isn't a problem either. I really think this one is too small (unlike the other one you posted more recently)/

File Size Wilfred . .

Wilfred that report is reassuring. A few months ago I viewed this site via a connection that averaged about 25-33 kps. Some images never loaded before my patience reached a finite point. I will create a larger version of this image. I desire to reframe from posting images that are significantly greater than 40-65 KB. Are your images typically, greater than say 60 Kb in file size, Wilfred? This sound like a good 'Poll of the Day" question. I'm on it!!!!
