[superlightr]

ive tried reszizing for the Piston head massive, from large to medium for the 1st and from large to small on the 2nd. -still practicing. (scared of Simpo Two!!)

Ive got the puddle one as a background as quite pleased with that one. Gentle but firm comments welcome!

Try the XP Powertoys image resizer, it lets you specify how many pixels wide you want the picture to come out as -

Hey Funki Nigel- thanks for that. Very easy to use!

FYI, top one is 1158px wide and 221Kb, bottom one is 752px and 170Kb. So 'small' is the way to go unless you want to try other methods. However, at least neither of them are 1Mb+ jobbies so you may award yourself a biscuit

What, like using the XP image resizer and setting width to 750?

Taken with my cheapo digi tonight, but I thought it was kinda autumnal:

Composition and color is good in both shots. The first one I would have gone into A mode and stopped it down as ow as it could so I had less DOF, and the second one could use an unsharp mask. Oh, and it never hurts to add a little (or a lot!) of saturation to the shot.
