A ten shot photo merge of Rhaead Ogwen (Ogwen Falls) and Tryfan with the RAF hard at work

Please view full screen for better image sharpness.
Can someone tell me why the image left looks soft and full screen looks sharper?

Great picture when viewed on full screen. Why is it so much softer at the slightly smaller size?

How did you get it to go full screen? When I magnify it, it just goes to about half-screen width

Frasier, what device are you viewing it on?

A desktop PC, with a fairly large (24") monitor.

The image appears full screen on my laptop and phone, however the image is 1000 pixels wide so I don't know if its to do with scaling up to your large monitor... I'm not that technologically minded!

Excellent!

Great photo, made even more dynamic by the chopper, and with lots of interesting detail - but still Tryfan dominates as [I think] it should.

Thank you felt and abseil, I;m glad you like it.
To share a little more detail, if you follow the ridge down from Pen Yr Ole Wen (Image left) to where it meets the bridge and then look straight down. Take a horizontal line from the point where the waterfall disappears and look to the left, at the point where the two lines intersect is a square looking rock.
This is actually a very well camouflaged World War 2 Pill box, more information below; there are also a number of Spigot Mortar emplacements in the area used by the Home Guard during the War.
