It looks like you managed it in your second post, but just select the medium size from the "All Sizes" page before you copy the code to put into the page.

Thanks

Aha! It looks like no-one has "drawn the line" to say that this assignment is finished. The next one has started though so allow me to do the honours:

I met this family while shooting in Clear Creek. They just migrated from Florida to Colorado three weeks ago. I didn't get all of their names. I had a hard time choosing what image to submit for this week's assignment which was actually very educational because it really made me try to focus on the elements of a good photo. Which one do you think I should have entered?

IMG_7595

IMG_7578

IMG_7554

I wrestled with this for a long time trying to figure out what to do. I asked my friends...and then I came across this pic...which is the one I entered into this week's assignment. (see post below) Did I make the wrong choice? Am I obsessing and worried over nothing? I think part of my process in becoming a photography is learning to trust my own instincts, my own faith in my work. But it's obvious I don't. Sorry for the long rant...I just couldn't contain this any longer. Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

Default strangers - NOT entering mini-contest

Who's more fun than a waitress who'll take your group picture? This is Tara at the Rio Grande Restaurant in Boulder,CO last month.

Default Thank you

I wasn't sure where to post my thanks but "Thank you so much" for choosing my "The Walk" for the winner of the stranger assignment - I am so chuffed to be on the blog - I'm always in awe of photos not only that make it there but also all the ones posted in the assignments! Stunned but extremely grateful. Thanks!
