  My preference in shots like that would actually be to get the back of the people as they are walking away, into the landscape.  That way you get the idea that they are enjoying the same view that we are and it is less distracting.
You mean like this?

I'm glad that someone else has shown some images, I was beginning to think you are all shy & retiring

Who, me?  Retarded maybe; retiring, no. Roll Eyes

That was Terry's comment.
My thought, Seth, was that his last photo was a little too cheeky for me.  Shocked
(That's Brit for nervy, right?)

So I can only offer one image as a redemption to bring the thread back on track.  Wink

Terry or Seth,
A question:
Re the posted images, what am I doing wrong that my posted images are so small, needing an extra click to become normal size like yours and Seth's?

Fred,
Your images are attachments, mine and Seth's are "Inserted", second icon in from the left.
Inserted image have to be on a web site somewhere so this forum site is not over-loaded with big files.
Get a web gallery like me, your last attachment, the rear view, could look really impressive then   Tongue Grin

Yep, what Terry said.

Note that your thumb of the pic is about 37K but the attached image is 92K.

I would have done as you have but I thought we weren't allowed to.  If we can do attachments it would be MY preferred route.

You can, use the Additional Options line, bottom left of the post screen. It's limited to 128KB per post.

Guess I'll stay with what we are doing for the most part.

You know I tried that free Pbase trial thing, and got so confused that I had to call you for help to cancel it, and delete what I had posted on the site.
Ok then I'll stick with ATTACH. from the additional options in the message.
I don't even use the word INSERT especially when I have a Cystoscopy scheduled.  Cry

Thanks anyway, guys!

Hello.

I generally try to eliminate all people if possible, but then that is me.  Put a landscape in a camera club competition without a figure in it and it is marked down. Judges always seem to require somebody in red jumper.

Three of my shots in the Dordogne from my Silkypix days when I went in for strong colours,  still do, but Qimage raw processing has toned me down a bit.

Damn, how do we post images here?

At my club, red jumpers are out; figures in a picture depends on the judge. As we've seen on this thread, opinions vary considerably.

2 ways:
1. As an attachment, click additional options bottom left of the post window; you are limited to 128kB per post.
2. Insert, icon at top of post window, 2nd row, 2nd from left. The image needs to be located on another web site like PBase. You can any size you like.

Fred

Your ISP will have given you some webspace, its a simple task to upload your photo to it via FTP and then use insert.
Once you get your FTP address, username and password from them, it's a drag and drop job using a free ftp program like Filezilla. The address you insert will be http://youraddress.com/filename.jpg.

I much prefer inserted images, one less click!
