Glad you liked it. I don't normally do that to other people's work, but I was so blown away by that shot I really couldn't resist having a play with it. It really is lovely.
I've outlined the sharpening I do (it's what I did to this shot) in my reply to Mike above...the bit that's written in grey is the relevant part.

That's amazing, sucha simple formulae but i've been playing with it and it really does a nice job, thankyou kindly. :)

Decide what final size you are going to reduce to for the web. I usually use 800 or 900 along the longest edge. Here's the tricky part, reduce the image to x1.66 of your final image output size.
So, for example, if you want an image that's 800 pixels along the longest edge, reduce the image to around 1300 (800x1.66 = 1328). If you want an image that's 900 pixels, reduce to around 1500 (900x1.66 = 1494) etc etc.

May I ask how do you came up with 1.66?

Finally got my copy of Lightroom 3 (Student discount ftw!) so I can start going through the pictures from my trip this summer. The first one is from "the wedding cake" or other wise known as: Monumento Nazionale a Vittorio Emanuele II in Rome. The second was taken on a bridge in Paris, and the third was taken in a market in Aix en Provence.

^indeed, makes me think very hard of the alps, somewhere close to the Brenner Pass... or even switzerland where the rhine surfaces.
