Photos have dimensions and file sizes. You have the option to download photos for free from our photo gallery.

• small, thumbnail sized images are displayed on the page so that it loads quickly
• "download medium" is the link to use to download the medium sized photo
• the numbers under "download medium" are the number of pixels (little dots) that an image is made of
• "download large" works similarly
• the first number is the width
• the second number is the height (tall)
• the third number is the size of the file for the image in KB or MB
• KB = KiloBytes (thousands)
• MB = MegaBytes (millions)
• GB = GigaBytes (billions)
• TB = TeraBytes (trillions)
• We have over 60GB worth of photos in our photo gallery (that's a lot)
• 1000KB = 1MB (some systems round down like this example, others are 1024KB = 1MB; we'll use 1000 for explanation purposes)
• Example: an image shown as (900x674 105KB) is 900 pixels wide by 674 pixels tall and is 105KB or .1MB; quite small; it would be good to use on a web page or Facebook post
• Example: an image shown as (4032x3024 2MB) is 4032 pixels wide by 3024 pixels tall and is 2000KB or 2MB; fairly large; it would be a good image to keep
• Facebook "dumbs down" their photos, so uploading a large photo doesn't do a lot of good
• Downloading a larger image takes longer and takes more space on your device; but if you want to keep the image, we recommend downloading the large version
• 2 different photos at the same dimensions can be different because of how the images were created
• All photos in our galleries are in JPG (compressed) format (some camera's create RAW images, which are usually twice as big in file size with the same dimensions as a JPG)
• Cameras compress photos differently as well
• Our photos have been typically shot with a point and shoot camera (older stuff), a smartphone, a DSLR, a drone, and even a Mirrorless camera; images in more recent galleries will have more pixels than older ones
• Images 3000 pixels wide or more are suitable to print in 4x6 or even 5x7 (for those of you that still like to do that)
• Images 4000 pixels wide or more are suitable to print in 8x10 or even 11x14
• Images 6000 pixels wide are magazine (and possibly billboard) quality
