They look great to me. I don't think they were compressed too much for
viewing on the web. When viewing them on a computer screen there would
be little difference with an uncompressed image, IMO. If you had posted
the original 5 Meg pix, only a fraction of the picture would have filled
the computer screen.


And those with slow connections wouldn't have seen them at all. I'm using
a dial-up connection during my move back to the U.S., and I'd never have
waited to download a long series of 5 Meg files. The photos in 100K are
well worth a moderate wait. Terrific shots of the variety of insects in
Penns. That from-below pic of the female sulfur makes me wonder why more
sulfur dry patterns don't have much more pronounced egg sacks.

Very good stuff. Thanks a lot for the work you put into taking, then
posting them. If I ever fish Penns, I'm going to consult these photos as
least as much as Tom L's excellent shots of the patterns he uses.
