Is it possible to make cellphone pics larger? The +1 takes some and emails them to me, but they are really small to post.

You should be able to edit them, MsP. I've never attempted it but using your photo software you should be able to.

I’m not certain how you post or process your photos or with what device; with my very old Windows PC I used a free picture resizer from Download.Cnet. I normally went the opposite direction large ==> small. It worked well, was self intuitive, and came without a virus or attachments.

As Valentine said,…your photo editor probably has this function.

Not sure what phone he is using. With an iphone if a Pic is being e-mailed, you have options to send it at various sizes, including full size. Maybe he can check for that option.

^ Worked. Thanks. I didn't know about that option - don't think the +1 did, either.

Few pics from the Wash Int'l Horse Show. Hard to get a clear pic of moving horses. The one eating the tree was headed back from the arena to the barn area outside.

Nice, MsP. My niece who lives in Beaufort is into dressage. She's been a horse lover (and owner) for YEARS. I'd love to attend a show and see her perform. Had to look twice at that last pic since it looked so much like her on her horse.

I know someone very well who is into all that dressage stuff - I get a report almost daily........ even if I don't understand most of it.

While most were asleep on their comfortable beds or watching the WS I was in an abandoned cemetery taking photos lit by our last super moon of the year. Some fun!

By now you've read all the media reviews out there. I thought the car was awesome but I'm not an experienced tracker. It took me three tries to get into the car with a helmet on. I had to really duck down to quit hitting it on the doorframe. The seat and interior felt like they were wrapped around me but weren't confining. The Alcantara suede in the center of the seat was like a glue strip. I never slid around the seat on the track at all. I had my hands on top of my legs and my feet planted on the carpet. It sounded like my current NSX and was very fast and slot-car like. I told the Acura race car driver, Peter Cunningham, that I get motion sickness so he took it easy on me in the turns, compared to the two other guys who won the raffle ticket rides. He told me he didn't go into the corners as fast and used the brakes less to keep the motion smoother for me. I loved the ride but it's really a rich person's toy. Very rich. I feel like my NSX is perfectly fine for fun group drives and a car that advanced would be so much over kill for what my needs and wants are. I got a ride in a Tesla P85D in insane mode and it felt similar to that, although my eyeballs didn't go back inside my head in the NSX like they did in the Tesla.
