Dear Garden Friends,

I bought a new digital camera this week an so I took some plant
pictures this weekend. To see how the camera works. Wel here they
are........This picture is from Hosta 'Harry van de Laar'.

I put a selection (11) of the pictures (that I took today and
yesterday) on my hostavalley website ( www.hostavalley.com ). You can
see them if you want.

I hope you like them....

I enjoyed taking them.


Groeten jeroen.

Could you tell us what kind of camera you were using, and what the settings
were?

Your web site takes a *very* long time to load due to the *extremely*
large (byte) size of your pictures. First, create 'thumbnail' photos
of the dimensions you want to display. Do not reference full-scale
photos and force the browser to scale down for display. Second, use
jpg/jpeg compression to bring down the size of the images. Ideally,
photos on the web should be no larger than 30-50kb, at least until we
all get broadband access. :-)

The photos are very nice, and I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun with
your new camera.

Its a Olympus C-760 utra Zoom digital Camara....
It's a superb camera and here in holland it's a real bargain...

If you want a cheap camera with the zoom of a expensive one.......

buy this camera Sherwin.
