Fixed height and width for bootstrap carousel

Question

I am using the bootstrap carousel but I want a fixed width and height so that all my images will auto fit to the defined height and width. Can someone please help me on achieving this.

<div class="row">
    <div class="span8">
        <div id="myCarousel" class="carousel slide">
            <ol class="carousel-indicators">
                <li data-target="#myCarousel" data-slide-to="0" class="active"></li>
                <li data-target="#myCarousel" data-slide-to="1" class=""></li>
                <li data-target="#myCarousel" data-slide-to="2" class=""></li>
            </ol>
            <div class="carousel-inner">
                <div class="item active">

                    <img src="~/Images/Carousel/carousel_1.jpg" alt="http://www.google.com">
                    <div class="carousel-caption">
                        <h4>First Thumbnail label</h4>

                </div>
                <div class="item">
