[Leica] IMGs: Mexico B&W and gallery sizing issues

[henningw at archiphoto.com (Henning Wulff)]

Hi John,

I've now posted two versions in B&W. I think they still need a bit of 
tweaking and tonal adjustment, but this is a first crack at it.

I also posted the same picture, adjusted and exported from Lightroom. 
Once at 1000 pixels for the long dimension, once at 800 to suit the 
basic display dimension. I wanted to try this because I usually post 
a larger picture, and then let the gallery software reduce the image 
for the main display.

It seems to me that not only is the picture as sized correctly 
sharper, the tones are also different.

In other words, try to make sure that you post pictures at the size 
that your album will display them if you want to have control over 
both sharpness and tones, as the gallery software changes them while 
resizing.
