Photo experiments

I have been experimenting with different sizes for the photographs I post here. Originally I was limiting myself to image widths of 500 pixels, but I was not comfortable with the loss of details.

Recently I switched to 650 pixel width images. (See the Castle Rock State Park images posted last week.) Horizontally-formatted photos work great this way – at least in my browser and on my computer. However, when vertically-formatted photos are this wide, they are too tall to fit on the screen – not a good situation. I’m leaning towards compromising on a 600 pixel width.

I'm back

Updates have been spotty over the past week and a half due to a dsl outage from my provider, speakeasy.net. (I’ve posted details elsewhere for those who are interested in such things.)

In any case, my service came back up last night on day 9 of the outage and I’m optimistic that it will stay that way, allowing me regular access to post updates. There will be one more service downtime later today when I move the server box back here and point to the new IP. Thanks for your patience.
