That's a good size for viewing the flower Graeme. We have many exquisite orchids in our SW bush, and they can be quite elusive.

If you want to shrink the photos, any photo editor will let you resize, eg the one that comes with Windows. Otherwise there are many freebies such as Easy Thumbs that you can select the size and do a group of photos at once. Another trick is to try your email programme - if you attach full sized photos and go to send, most will ask if you want to shrink the photos - then save the shrunk ones back to your hard drive.

Look forward to more wildflower photos

I just could not stop taking photos of them and here are some images of them. W
