Does anyone know how to change the size of a jpg export in lightroom? The small image is the 'for email' export and the only other size I have been able to get is 1:1. Anyway, I will update the image.

Yes, that is much better. Nice colour and exposure. The subjects are possible a bit small depending on what you want from the image.

When you export to disk, go down to Image Sizing and select your size. I usually set the long edge only to maintain aspect ratio.

The 'subjects' are there because I couldn't ask them to get off a public beach.

Lovely colors and I like the curved 'vanishing point'.

Sorry, I thought with the subject title Mathew and son the 'subjects' were Mathew and his son:D

I really like this image, it's very pleasing and the sky looks excellent. By naming the shot Mathew and Son, I am confused though. Titles add weight to an image because viewers use them to interpret the image. By saying that the people were incidental to the image, IMO you mistitled the image.
Still, very lovely image.

@Marko you're right. From now on I think I will avoid titling images. Better not to influence the viewer's interpretation.

Thanks everyone for your comments.

I'm not sure you should avoid titles, perhaps just make them more closely reflect your intent. :twocents:
