No. I wouldn’t want it any smaller. It fills about 1/3 of my monitor area. Nice shot, BTW, which I believe I said before. Interesting composition of the symmetrical elements. Paul > On Mar 29, 2016, at 10:10 AM, Jack Davis wrote: > > As is obvious, I sent this response

Fwd: Spring Pond size

As is obvious, I sent this response to Dan, but have now decided to post it to the list. Anyone else find this an unwieldy sized image? httP://photolightimages.com/aspupload/detail.asp?ID=1043 1053X700px (505kb) Doc,4.4x2.9 ins. Thanks! J - Forwarded Message - From: "Jack Davis"

Re: Peso-Spring Pondll

Nice image. As it first appears on my desktop monitor, the image is WAY too large. It is difficult to appreciate at that size. Yes, I know how to zoom out, but ideally that should not be necessary when visiting a photographic website. Just my 2 cents. YMMV. Dan Matyola

Back to Fall Creek

We headed back to Fall Creek last night, not only getting there a little earlier, but bringing tripods as well. Here's a tree that caught my eye: https://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/25503440594/ Here's a small waterfall/spring by the kilns:
