Really like this image, but i am a bit of a sucker for detail shots. I like the new large image. Working fine here - but I'm on a 23 inch Mac

New image size is working nicely on Mac Safari 2 and Firefox 2. Looks great!

Works fine in FIrefox 2 on Linux (1680x1050). Nice image

Wonderful shot - you may not find it very exciting but Verity and I do! Loving the new size.

brilliant image, very striking. looks good @ 1280x1024 on PC & Firefox.

Dave, 19" LCD at 1280x1024 screen is scrollable in a vanilla IE7 browser, looks fine on laptop at 1680x1050. Good shot, sensor cleaning is a pain, at f32 you might find its dust on your lens filter, as much dof in front of lens as there is behind, at least thats what I've found. Craig

More to the point Dave...was the wine any good? richard.

I'm running 1280x800 on a MacBook. No noticable change in image size, but maybe my resolution falls just short of the large image requirements.
That being said, it's a nice shot. Not really my cup of tea (or glass of wine?) but it's nicely composed.

You say it's not especially exciting but the composition is strong and the juxtaposition of the in focus bottle top and the blurred logos works well.

I like the bigger images, and they seem to work well on a PC with IE7 too.

Looking good with IE7, 1920x1200 on a 23 inch screen. Cool.

Hmpf, I want that bigger image, too. I'm not getting it though -- I'm on a Macbook Pro with 1440x900px and though it seems like I would have the screen real estate for the bigger image, neiter Firefox nor Safari is showing it to me. Would be nice to be able to choose for yourself whether you want the bigger or smaller image, I would say.

Bonjour,
nice large image..Well done shot..Bravo!

1440 x 1050 on a IBM thinkpad using Firefox. Nice and big. Nice picture, too.

I actually think the new image size is too big.

At normal viewing distances the old size (~800px) would fit entirely in my field of vision but the new size makes it very difficult to take in the entire frame at once, leaving the eye skating around all four corners separately.

On this particular image, with it's narrow, centric focus it doesn't matter so much but an image with sharpness in the corners would probably seem worse.

I think less is more in this case. I do hate it when photographers have piddly little images (~300px max) on their sites as well, so don't think I'm a lover of small photos or anything. I just think that at this moment in time, 800px is about right for a 3:2 image on modern screens.

As screen resolutions change (and they're always getting bigger) that will probably increase to go hand in hand with it but, as a general rule of thumb, I would say that an on-screen photo should be about the same physical size as a 6" x 4" print. That is to say, if you hold a 6" x 4" piece of paper up to a typical monitor and note down how much of the screen it covers, that's about what you're after.

Just my opinion though.

i'm on a XP box with a 1440x900 monitor and with FFX 2.0.0.7 at fullscreen, the image loads beautifully at the new resolution. but on IE6, at fullscreen, it doesn't.

I'd be interested in how you clean the sensor on your cameras.. Seems to be many different methods/tools - very confusing to know what is best to use..

PS - Thanks for the site update - the size increase is working nicely for me in Vista [1280x1024] using FF 2 and on XP at 1680x1050 again using FF 2

Amazing angle. really nice.

I don't suppose you'd be willing to talk about how you lit the scene? Looks like possibly window light through blinds to the left of the picture?

Thanks all. As for the bigger images: I think I'll stick with it, but will think about making it optional.

Looks great in Opera and the bigger size is better. Especially this picture is a masterpeace based on very good idea.

Why f/32? What am I missing?

Are you sure this is f32?!
