this is what its all about... same tree. baby hoot owl! un-freakin-believable! talk about a humbling experience(and ticked off parents!)
 
sorry bout the soft focus on these owl shots. i am trying to upload some footage of the nest that is outstaning. we'll see how it goes...
 
climbed neighboring maple, lotsa limbs, about 30' up was able to hit bottom limb of that fir the w/ throwline... climb of my life i think. i was in that tree for about 3 1/2 hrs. it wasnt the time or the height so much as all the other factors involved. truly awesome day.
 
bah i gave up trying to edit one of those pics but is there a pic from far off with you in the top? i thought i saw a shape in like second picture of a climber. btw yours are way bigger than mine i dont like heights and i'm trying to get over it but come on, i mean come on
 
no, was only climbing. besides i still want a picture of myself reclined in that top "y"shaped section w/ my hands folded behind my head. i dont think anyone i know has a lens that would do a photo like that justice. i'm still fiddling w/ that video of the owls nest to see if i can post it here you guys gotta see it...
 
Great subject matter, but you're killing me with the file sizes! Is there any way you can drop the "quality factor" down (rhetorical question)? In the attached image, I've got the originals ("quality" 90) on the right and in the left pane are copies at "quality" 65. I cannot see any difference whatsoever between any two versions of any image.

(notice the new versions all have the same displayed time stamp -- that's because I converted them all within five seconds by issuing a single command)
 
sorry didnt know they were so big. they uploaded for me lickity split. and my connection isnt exactly like greased lightning. so i thought they were okay.glen dont die! hang on buddy! dontchoo leave me! dammit! hold on! oops sorry. there i go actin a fool again.
 
The "physical" dimensions are possibly just a tad large if not optimum, but it's the "quality" factor that's excessive for this (and similar) venue(s).

100 to 150 kilobytes really is a reasonably comfortable upper limit.

Admittedly, when I zoom into a spot such as the open side door of the van in this shot, I can see degradation in my version as compared to yours, but I feel it's entirely acceptable. What say you? Do a direct comparison for yourself.

hey why dont you just get dsl or cable or something dial up is for fax machines
I'd love to! You gonna spring for stringing the wires or burying the fiber out near my place? Nobody else seems to want to, not even SBC, when they'd potentially have several hundred customers who'd jump on the chance as well. We all do well to get a good clean 56k, and SBC says they only guarantee 14.4k.

seems screwy. butthey cant bring cable to my house either (w/out a bunch of $) i had a 56k connection that was not much slower than my wireless dsl is right now. but i just figured HAD to have it. all techy and whatnot. i'm sure there must be something i can do to improve the download speed (software or some)
