I thought I would give the larger pixel size allowed out for a spin and see how it looks here now. Thanks to Jim for the new updates on the forum!
This is Cheyenne Creek in Colorado Springs. I had seen a post by Russ Colletta on his Facebook page, who some may recognize the name from the NPN site as he posted there quite often some time back, which inspired me to contact him and schedule a shoot together last Saturday morning. I really liked his shot of this little stone bridge, so I wanted to shoot it for myself. Thanks again, Russ for your time and guidance at this site. Russ is a great guy and an excellent photographer, so it was a joy to shoot and talk with him.
Morris, wonderful shot! I like the feeling that you're standing in the rushing water - or perhaps you actually were?
On my 1920X1200 monitor, the photo appears in the lightbox full size. On my laptop, the lightbox version is a bit smaller than the photo in the post (which will max out at 720 pixels in width).
Morris, that's my park (I'm president of the Friends of Cheyenne Canon)! I've shot that bridge many times, in all seasons (it's really nice after a fresh snow fall). You've captured it well. Next time you're down here, give me a call. I'll show you some other places in the park to shoot.
Lovely shot! I also like the feeling that you're standing in the water. You timed it beautifully, with light on the yellow tree in the top right corner, and just enough light on the water to make it sparkle but not blow out.

I forgot to try out the new option of background colors, so if you post something, you might be sure and try that out, too.
That's a beauty! I was just in the Springs and had I known about this bridge I surely would have photographed it. Lovely image.

Thanks for giving it a try!
Thanks, Jim, and thanks for the changes. It helps in the presentation of our work immensely.
Thanks, Bret! Maybe you can find time to shoot it next time you are there.

Thank you, Bob, and I will!
Thank you, Glenn. The timing was just luck. LOL.
