They are very good. Which one would you pick? I would totally have a hard time because they're all that good. You could even pick a foursome and get them done -- not as large as one big, but all four together on the wall would equate to being that big...

I was thinking of maybe getting the first or second one on a split canvas (you know where you have three or four pieces you arrange to make up a big picture). I've got this big blank wall in my bedroom. And then maybe I could get some smaller ones for the other walls. 🤔

I would do it, they are as good as any professional photo I've seen! :hugs

I had this one my daughter took from the top of Broadway Tower (a folly which is one of the two highest places in the Cotswolds) printed out and framed. I love it but somehow it always fails in local photo comps - I guess the judges don't get the point of it - which is "The Lonely Tractor in a vast landscape" :D and also, it is not such good quality as yours, Tom, taken on a long-ago iPhone. I still like it though and it looks nice on my wall:

(Free time is an inconsistent commodity for me.) Thanks to all contributors for my pleasure reading time. ;)
A very warm welcome to ComicLitChick! 😍 So happy that you joined US! Utah is beautiful!! Are those current pics with the snow already? 😲😲

I will keep working on our map 😊
Yikes! I haven't been able to get back here long enough to read responses, nor respond. You all here are so welcoming and it doesn't hurt that we share similar interests. :love

I might've revealed myself, :blush meaning I don't provide feedback much as I'm totally inconsistent as I have no set work schedule. (I live a crazy ass life in self-employed retail.)

Oh well, I guess I'm gonna out myself even more, but I'm not good at being incognito anyway. Since 1986, I've been selling comics, books, stuff like that, we recently had the opportunity to close our brick & mortar shops when rents were increasing and then Covid hit. So perfect timing, which is wild because if I didn't have bad luck, I'd have non at all. HaHa

Anyway, please forgive my hit and run approach to these responses. I pop in when I get a free minute or two then have to go back to help someone. Yes, closed stores but still do mail order service, which we've done since the 80s.

Oh damn, way to much info. Sorry, I should stick on the mail order labels I was printing when I stopped in here.

Thank you for the welcoming words and map stuff. I'll hopefully be back later today, tonight after my post office/UPS stops, dog walking and dinner. For my dog, my hubs has opposable thumbs so doesn't need my non-domestic abilities.

Beautiful!!!

I do so love snow when it is so fresh and new!

I hope it doesn't cause you any problems, Fossy - that's the less fun side of snow.

No, it's not. It's alright now. At the moment there's not very much snow, only a tiny layer, so it's doesn't cause complications! :up

I live in a lovely suburb of Houston, Texas. It is warm here much of the year, and I love it because our gardening season is very long. I have lived all over the United States, but have made Houston my home.

We have so many cultural events here in our very diverse community. It makes it a wonderful place to live, but I have to admit traffic is horrendous at times and not my favorite thing about living here.

Thank you, Merry and Tom!

Merry, there are lovely tearooms to visit should you ever visit me in Texas, and would it not be fun to chat over a steaming cup of tea, or a glass of wine?

If you come to Texas ever Tom, there are so many fun places I could take you!

This is how my city Ogre will look when the city tree will be lit. This is from last year, but in principle this look is every year! 😃🎄 :xmas
