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.

I agree, and those great detailed pics of nymphs and mayflies will come in
handy for tying! Thanks.

Hi Softhackle,
I really enjoyed the pics on the website. As you mention later in the
thread you have more pics of the hatches. I for one, would enjoy seeing
some more if you have some time to post them. Sounds like you'll be busy
with stripers and steelhead for awhile.

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.

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.
