    Wow very similar . This could have been placed in my file and I would have been positive it came from my walk today!

    Not the same location .. but what we are buzzing over is how similar the shots are, on the same day, however the location is over 2500 miles apart!

    I'm still firmly in the learning stage with the new camera, only taking snapshots at this point. Lots of room for growth though, which is one of the reasons I bought it.

    The picture of the canyon is awesome. The canyon is awesome as it is portrayed, I have never seen it.

    My only question here is, did someone travel all the way from Indiana to Utah for this Challenge, smile?

    Or am I confused on who took what and lives where.

    Pathfinder, Now that's a keeper... Makes you want to be there... To feel the color and the quietude. WoW... Makes me want to travel again this summer, but I don't think it's in the cards.

    Thanks for all the kind words. lickout.gif I almost did not post this because I was not sure if it was a pathway, but it is of sorts.

    I went out West for a vacation, not just for this contest, Ginger. Laughing.gif

    I don't think I cropped it very much at all - I will have to look at the file at home this evening to be sure. As for being near the edge of drop offs - I have some pictures from Horsehoe Bend in Arizona that even scare me. See if I can find them tonight perhaps, Gubbs.Laughing.gif

    Well, I went hiking with my daughter this weekend, but didn't have as much luck as I was hoping. This was my best capture for the assignment.

    Neil:
    What size are you "shooting" the image? (I use Fine)
    What format?
    What program are you using to "work" the image?
    Are you on dial-up or broadband (Here size & time might be factors for dial up, like I have at the moment...)

    I can help you with Photoshop based programs, but am not up to snuff on some of the others.
    That being said... If the image is Jpeg, I recommend saving it in your programs format, doing all of the adjustments as needed.
    Size the image, I generally use 8"x6" as a base point at 100dpi
    Save for web, aka optimize for web, (here I always strive to keep it at or above 75%.
    Then save.
    Export up onto your Smugmug website and link back to it to post.
    I'm sure there are several other methods that work... Hope this helps a bit....
    If your in Photoshop, I can give you step by step directions.

    Here are my first two posts to "Pathways." I suspect that they will change prior to the deadline, but I at least wanted to put forth some effort.

    Tough call, SV. Either #1 or #3. I quite like the B&W, but the sorta tropical color thing seems quite important to the scene.
