Bill, click the link below, it's the program that is provided here on BRAVO to reduce the size of the pics so they don't take up some much storage space, part of the program allows the user options of different effects, the program is Irfan View, hope this helps and thanks for the kind words, still trying to figure out the new camera, making strides, umm maybe baby steps is more like it.

Very nice shots, i like the colored skecthes and the "fire" in Red hooks window would be a cool window decal

Army Trucks are so DC 911 can deploy Troops from the Command Post...ok not true, lolololol...but ideal for flooding or bad storms to get the Big DC 911 Wigs around. Great Shots.

It was a nice evening and the weather was perfect after the heavy rain we had enroute to the training center. The sky was awesome. Again thanks Bill for allowing us out to help out and for me to take some shots. Spanky Dean you make us proud, even if they call you smurf at class.
