I walked into my kitchen to carve meat off a turkey and noticed there were no birds at my feeder. That either means there is a cat nearby or that a sharp-shinned hawk has frightened the birds away. Turns out after a short search I saw the hawk on the ground eating a bird. I had a 400mm lens on my camera. Since the bird was only 12 feet away I couldn't get the entire bird in the first few photos. I changed to a 70-200mm lens and took a few shots until the hawk flew to a planter about 18 feet from me. I took a few shots at 200mm and then changed back to the 400mm. What is remarkable is that I have never been able to snap more than 2 or 3 photos in the past, but this sharp-shinned allowed me to take many photos and even gave me time to change lenses twice. It looked right at me many times but did not fly.

This is one of the first photos I took with the 400mm lens. The hawk was about 12 feet from me. IMG_0997

So what is the best resolution for sharp images on Flickr?

Of course, the resolution, in which the images are displayed ... so no interpolation is needed.

But in which rez are the photos displayed? That varyies ...

In my opinion and with my tests, I would say, that the following rezs are good ones:

1024 x 683 (does mean: 1024 x somethingsmallerthan1024, example aspect ratio 3:2)

683 x 1024 (does mean: somethingsmallerthan1024 x 1024, example aspect ratio 2:3 )

These are the resolutions in which images are displayed in the "large" presentation. Also it's the maximum rez for the no-charge usage of Flickr.

Also good ones:

2048 x 2048

2048 x 1366, 1366 x 2048

These can be downsampled to quarter rez with almost no loss in sharpness (due to factor 2), but you also have a large backup of the file on flickr ... (also rez like the following are good ones: 4096x 4096 and so on ..., ... all with multiples of 1024 on the long side).

Examples: Compare these shots, both sharpened, but the 1024x683 shot was sharpened after downsampling:

www.flickr.com/photos/galllo/5833619909/in/photostream/

www.flickr.com/photos/galllo/5829987225/in/photostream/

These shots should be viewed in full rez display. With "large" viewing and with the browser in full-screen mode. Only so, one image pixel is one monitor pixel.

***

Btw.: Why not optimizing for Medium Size Viewing? This would mean to interpolate the shots down to some rez with 640 pixels on the long side. Too small to see any optimiziation, I think. I did some experiments, trying to optimize for Medium Size Viewing, but there was almost no difference visible.
