Autumn colors in the Smokies...

Visited the Smokies in Tennessee a couple of weeks ago and the colors were spectacular. Here are a few samplings from my gallery:

Sorry, I seem to have forgotten how to enter the photos....

That's what I get for being inactive too long.

I think this should work....I wish they still had a 'preview' button...if this doesn't work, I'll give up for now....thanks!

HOw did you do that, visionlight?

I posted like I used to some time ago by entering the url myself but I forgot to enter "/lucy" so I tried adding that but it still did not work.  Then I tried to copy and paste the url from my pbase site....but this didn't work either.  I tried searching the site for info about posting images and couldn't find anything.  Dpreview used to have an 'edit' option and also a 'preview' option beneath the message, now neither of these are available.

Sorry to be such a dummy, but things have apparently changed a lot since I was here last.  Can you tell me where to look for this info?    Thanks so very much.

Re: HOw did you do that, visionlight?

Here is your original link to the first image:

http://www.pbase.com/image/153642104/original.jpg

When copying it to the reply edit field, an icon popped up that gives you the choice to imbed the image in the post. I clicked on that icon, chose to imbed, and the image showed up as seen above. This was fairly easy since you had already provided the links.

The normal way to do it would be to use the "insert image" icon above the edit field on the Icon Bar. It's the last one. From the drop down options, choose "insert image from web" and enter the link. Hit Enter and the image downloads as seen below:

Hope this helps.

Re: HOw did you do that, visionlight?

Lucy,

When you create or reply to a thread there is a task bar at the top (right below the subject line) that has a small picture frame.  If you click on that it will give you three options for posting your photos--form your computer, from your web site or from your DPReviw gallery.  They have made it pretty simple now.

Thanks Visionlight....and all...

I will try again...

Scene at the Townsend Visitor Center.

Now I see where you imbed the image.  I hadn't noticed that ribbon at the top.

That's what happens when you stay away for a while....everything changes!  lol   To me it was simple the old way....but that's just me.  Thanks again.   (I still wish they had a preview pane) lol

Re: Autumn colors in the Smokies...

Hi Lucy

I like the waterfall pic the most, very nice frame and angle.

Though I would try to get a bit more of the top, maybe by using a wider lens or by trying to get a lower angle (not sure that's possible here).

I would try a longer exposure as well, this is a perfect frame for that!
