Edited on Mon Jan-11-10 08:24 PM by Saphire

I have just started back into photography. These are a few I've taken the past few days, I hope they show up.

6. Great shots!

Like Adsos Letter, I'm also curious about the story behind the first one.

As for resizing, if you're using Windows and you want to resize before posting to Photobucket, you can find some info on using IrfanView to resize your photos here:

There's also a link in one of the replies on what to do if you're using a Mac. No info in the thread for Linux users, although I'm sure someone will be able to help if Linux is your OS.

I hope we get to see more of your shots in the future.

and drove past this field....there was a large handwritten sign that says: Makin' Hay. There were 3 of them.

2. No need to be nervous, they're all excellent photos

I'd be really interested about the story behind the first one.

I'm a newbie here myself, so I sympathize.
