Poll // Photo Contest // June 2012
#1
#6
Jeremy, why are such small images displayed? The contest rules state "no bigger than 800x600", yet submitted photos are getting resized further down to 600x400. On modern computer displays, these are ridiculously small sized for a photo contest. On my phone browser at 1:1 display, they look like large postage stamps. Sure makes it tough for judging post-processing on most displays... </rant, sorry!>

Nice shots.
Pw4, I was thinking the same thing, I was expecting more like 6, 7, and 8.
Not to toot my own horn but my example is made up of ~225 photos; Astrolapsed for over 2 hours at 20 seconds a shot continuously on a night of a new moon phase.
Brought into Photoshop, stacked all of them one on top of the other then blended at maximum; The rendering took over an hour and the resulting file was over 8GB in size.
Silly me forgot to set the camera to standard Jpeg mode but instead I shot everything in RAW at 15MP.
When I went to save it the computer essentially froze up for about another 45 min while it tried to comprehend what was going on and after crashing it twice and having to re-render and save (two hours each essentially) it I finally got it saved.
All for one photo. Totally worth it though.
