I finally got some time and created a web site for a few of the
pictures I took over the the past 8 months. Sorry about the poor
resolution but the server I am using will only allow small files. The
pictures on the web site are about 100k compared to the pics stored on
my PC that are 5 megs each. I lost a good chunk of resolution in the
scale down process. I hope you all have a great fall season and as for
me its time to head back to the sal****er and catch some stripers and
after that I'll fish for steelhead up north.

Heres the URL for the site

Nice pics. Detail is good. Very good.

I've never imagined a fish could look as po'd as that "Future of
Penn's" little guy. Cute.

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.

Folks thanks for the kind words and I hope you enjoy the pictures.
What compression does to a picture is it strips it of detail. The
picture will look great from far away but when you zoom in you'll
notice the quality suffers. Compression gives you larger Pixels and a
lesser amount of pixels per inch.
So instead of 1000 pixels per inch you get 100 pixels per inch. The
shots I have on my PC I can zoom in to the point of counting the
individual hairs on the edges of the wings. I have pretty much the
whole year of hatches for Penns Creek and over the winter I'll try to
post some of them.

Well, Bruce, they're great pics and will go a long way towards my tying for
the Penns. Thanks again.
