Hi Sue and everyone

Hi Sue -
I suspect that the word Ilske is trying to find is "resolution". It means that
there are many more pixels per inch than in a low resolution picture. This

Hello Sue,
The photos I will send by mail or put into our album I take always with
my dig. camera. The problem is that here in Hamburg the sun doesn't

Buttons to Make" by Nancy Nehring. According to Amazaon.com it has 3

I have the Austrian folder number 5, which has lots of wide Torchon
patterns, from the museum in St Gilgen. No Flanders or Binche.

eliminates the problems caused by shadows, over- or under- exposure
