Larger photos -- what do you think?

Update, December 6: I have decided to revert to a smaller size photo and have adjusted all the previous big ones back to a more moderate size.. One reason was that I was reminded that some people subscribe via e-mail, and the big photos seemed really too much. Also, I liked the balance of the page better with the smaller photos. When I've got one that looks really great big, I'll beg people to click on it to see it larger, but I don't need to make them all big.
------------------------------------------

I adjusted my blog template to provide room to show the photos at a larger size. That means a lot more scrolling, but more impact for each photo. I'd like to know whether or not you find this format more appealing. Here's a photo from last winter to serve as an example. If you click back through earlier posts, you'll see I've enlarged the photos in the two or three most recent posts, but the earlier posts will show the size the photos were displayed at before I expanded the template width. Thanks for letting me know what you think!
