It's been a while since I posted a photo and I seem to have forgotten how to reduce it to a more friendly size. Help anyone?

I do one of two things - one, I put my photo in flickr, then choose the size for copying in here - and make sure to choose the HTML button above. (or I put it in photobucket, sometimes) two, I just click on the browse button to bring it in - motet reduces it automatically. However, the result is usually awfully fuzzy. I'm sure Coyote or another poster will be able to help you further. That's a fascinating picture.

Where was that taken?

Light from a flash is very harsh light...makes most things look stark and cold.

That statue on the bookcase: I think she's trying to pat her head
and rub her belly at the same time.

My camera has a ((--)) thingy that helps stabilize, but this time I was just lucky because usually in low light I blur everything. My lady is peering out under the hand shading her eyes, and holding up her skirt which is full of flowers she's picked. My darling uncle saw her in a shop in London town in the 40's and carried her on the plane wrapped in a blanket. She hasn't a blemish after all that travelling, being stored for a couple of years, and moved around many times since. I think the date on the base is 1892 or maybe '99, but I haven't had her down since she went up there in 2004. (The draught seems to carry the dust away from that corner, too, which is nice, but I should take everything down and clean it, I suppose.)

Ooo... I love the statue! You have such a lovely, cozy looking home, Annie :-)

Wish you could visit, Coyote! It's cluttered, but I figure why put away things you like - keep 'em on the shelves and enjoy. So they get a bit dusty, who cares!

My sentiments exactly!

That's a good one (too). I liked the composition and the colours. Would it be even better turned 1.5˚ to the right?

I meant "degrees"...

You are quite right - however the building on the left irritates me
because it is looming to the right a little - not noticeable if I
cropped it to the balconies, but I want the weight on the left to
balance that on the right. I have limited facilities on my camera so
find it difficult to get that mild fishbowl effect corrected (when I
use my automatic fishbowl correction it's far far too much).

It's an intriguing image. To me, it appears to be a drawing/painting made with charcoal and watercolors.

The building: Would it help some if you cropped a little of it?

Both versions look good to me.

I talk to myself, too Tom. I got scared recently when I received an email from me. Then I found out my email had been corrupted and I was sending the same message to several others. So beware of writing to yourself.
