Fall Colors

[elsaspet]

Hi all. I really love the colors in this photo. Would like to hear what the experts say.
Thanks!

do you have a bigger(higher resolution) version of this picture that we can see?

 

[elsaspet]

Yes, but I think it's something like 8mg. I've been trying to resize things in my Paint Pro 7. I put up my own website so that I could load photos there without size restrictions, but have idea what's a good size.
When you resize for this forum, what size do you make your photos?
I'll try it again this evening when I am back to the machine this photo is stored on.

I usually make the photos 200k and 800 pixels large.... that seems to work good...

About your photo... I like the colors, although I think the dark trees are distracting around the right side of the pic.

Ah, I see. I'll try it that size.
Are you talking about the willow tree? I was trying for that theory of thirds thing. I guess it didn't work well.
Would it work better if I cropped it out or would it make it lopsided?

I'm not sure.... I think it may work if you can re-take the picture and move in front of that tree.... although if you can't re-take it for some reason I would just leave it instead of cropping it..... I do like the picture though...
