Why bother posting a photo so small and far away? with no description or location? For me, it's an interesting subject on a nice day in a nice place. But I can't see anything.

Most photos used 1000 pixels as their largest dimension. This one shows somewhere around 600.

Well gee, I find the photo interesting, at least the poster tried. Too bad if it is not up to your standards.

Will take a guess and say the picture is the San Poil Local just south of the border heading back to Kettle Falls.

That's a great place to visit. The Columbia looks very grand in that area, there were a number of nice looking camping areas along there. I did manage to catch a train just before the border, I haven't touched any of those slides in a long time.

Thanks for info and also the really small image.

+ The 'standard' most everybody on TO is using is 1000 pixels. Getting less than that takes a bit of work.

TCnR, I'm assuming you're referring to 1000 pixels in the horizontal measurement, which is greater than allowed per the website posting instructions found in the "Guidelines" heading:

"... no more than 900 pixels horizontal, or 1200 pixels vertical as the largest size dimension."

IIRC, the maximum was 800 pixels horizontal in the not too distant past.
