Time flies like an arrow, olive flies like an olive.... These two pictures are of the same tree nearly 7 years apart. The duller one was taken a couple of weeks ago by my current snazzy Olympus Ultrazoom. The sunnier one was taken by my old Sony Mavica in early January 2000. If you click on them to see them enlarged you will note that the major difference is not in the scenery or the tree (though it is bushier), but in the image size and compression. The old one had to fit on a floppy so it lost a lot of detail compared to the newer one.
