A splendid gallery, Bob. The images of the leafy glades & rolling fields
clearly show why cycle tours (& hiking) are so popular. The image which
stood out the most for me was the Petanque players probably because my

Yes but there’s only so much you can carry :) Depending on the race you can
refill at rivers or aid stations. I know one race which climbs up a riverbed,
involving many crossings. It’s common for athletes to carry a cup on that
stage.

Otherwise it's a gorgeous photo.

Envy you your ride. (I looked into a walk in France like the one I did when I

Thanks, Donald.
I saw the flag, and wanted it the frame with as much of the wall as

hill (where I probably was not supposed to be) to get the right angle.

If they print at 300 pixels per inch - which is pretty standard and good
quality - then that file size should be good enough for a print of about
6.5 x 8.75 inches. So you probably don't need to up sample for a 4x6 or
even a 5x7.
