I have asked this before but I continually forget and/or have ADD and don't remember what I was doing at the time. <BR>How do I post pictures while maintaining the large size here on WW. If I try to get my shots down to 150KB, they are the size of my mouse pointer. <BR>I have Photoshop CS4 as well as Lightroom 2. Any help would be appreciated. <BR> <BR>Killer shot Walt.

Steve, <BR>In CS4 try, <BR>Save for web <BR>Quality 61 <BR>Size 700X465 <BR>Then save.

Nice pic's Walt. You sure do search out some wonderful locations in the Bay area. <BR> <BR>Here's one of the photogenic dog, Ollie. <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/87667/750002.jpg" alt="Upload">

Very nice Walt, what was your exposure time on the 1st shot in this last sequence? Thats a keeper!

Randy, 30 @ f/22.

Nice blur effect on the water in #1 Walt!

Rich, on the previous post you told me not to go past f/11... can you elaborate the difference or why it worked on Walt's shot as opposed to mine?

A few from Argentina... <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/87667/750182.jpg" alt="Upload"> <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/87667/750183.jpg" alt="Upload"> <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/87667/750184.jpg" alt="Upload"> <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/87667/750185.jpg" alt="Upload">

You asked why you did get super sharp "POP" in that landscape, Walt's shot doesn't need that level and at the size he posted the effects would be minimized anyhow. Actually there's nothing wrong with your landscape either except that you asked how you might get a bit more detail so I told you what I thought might be influencing that. <BR> <BR>Experiment next time. Do 2 shots: one stopped down and one stopped down midway and see if you notice any difference. It could have been that your landscape wasn't completely focused absolutely spot on as well. <BR> <BR>If I remember right you didn't have anything in the foreground of that shot that would warrant the need for extreme DOF anyhow. f8 to f11 is usually the sweet spot for best overall sharpness with most lenses.

This one was shot at f4 which sort of demonstrates what I mentioned above. <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/87667/750202.jpg" alt="Upload">

Attila, <BR>I shot at f/22 so I could slow the exposure time down.

I like the Delta/Diablo shot Rich.

You got those night exposures dialed Walt! That first bay bridge shot is just spectacular.

Nice, thanks for the input and tips!

That last shot is sick Rich! <BR> <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/87667/750233.jpg" alt="1">

North side of Alcatraz. The building was backlit, so it received extensive lightening. Wrong time of the day, but we were just coming back into the SF Bay.

Nice shots guys. I really like the locked up swan.

Thanks guys. Walt he was free, he stuck his head in a foot bridge rail when I was walking by so I layed down and fired away. Got lucky with the shot.
