 * Discovered that on NEW posts only, after adding a featured image that the image
   appears at its largest version as well as the formatted version that displays
   correctly on the page. This only happens on a single post page and only on new
   posts. The current/old posts do not have this issue. Disabling the facebook opengraph
   option removes the issue. There is clearly the image tag the Yoast meta section(
   causing the issue).
 * Samples below, any insight on this would be helpful. I have created several sample
   NEW posts and have the same issue.
