Steve,
When I zoom in on the image I can see the digital artefacts which are
typical of the 'lossy' Jpeg format.
I suggest that you save them as Raw files in camera, as previously
suggested.
Also, in reducing the file size for the web (it measures 600 x 400 in Paint
Shop Pro), resolution is obviously further reduced two ways:
1. Less pixels.
2. Yet more loss through resaving as a Jpeg again.
To demonstrate this, if you load an image into your editing software and
repeatedly re-save, without any other changes, then each time the file will
reduce in size and the quality will get worse
Cheers
Keith
