so it really is kind of small. I'd just never thought about printing any of these when I took them, so I had the resolution set low on the camera. The new shots I've taken with the Canon are much, much bigger ... now I just need some workable weather to get another something I like so I can get this little project done before Christmas. My daughter told me all she wanted for Christmas from me was one of my Alaska photographs blown up, matted and framed for her to put on her wall so she doesn't feel so homesick down there in L.A., so I want to get something really special.

I like what you did with the other photo. I think it's a lot of fun to play around like that. I got some software with my new camera called Digital Photo Professional 1.6 that I was messing with this afternoon, so I might take all my dark pictures and do some "extreme processing" on them and see what I can come up with.
