Just shot this on the lower fork of the Yuba River on a very hot day in the High Sierras. Canon 5D Mark II, 1/140, f8. Any feedback most welcome.

I would consider posting this larger Lucy. It's so small that I can't really give you any meaningful critique. How are you resizing your images for web?

Scott—I've been posting 720 on the long side but often the Get Info panel says it's over the posting limit of 300kb so size down. And whenever I try to post larger sizes (1200 on the long side/500kb) I get an error message.
This image was esp weird to post because when I tried to post the larger dimensions the Get Info panel kept saying it was over 300kb so I had to keep resizing it down. Technical help here would be much appreciated.

Not sure the problem...you using a 'save for web' procedure?? If so, there should be no issue, you should be able to easily increase the compression (probably save at 70% or so) for a sub 300k file.
As for the hsot--looks pretty cool, ideally i would have liked more purple to balance the green--but that may not have been possible here. So i like--from what i can see :wink:

This is a larger repost. I tried Save for Web option this time. Hope it works.
