Those pretty pictures...

[Debp]

A few of you often put pretty pictures to go with your posts.   Just want to thank all of you for taking the time to do this.   I especially enjoy the cats!   Also, enjoy Enoob's humorous pics!

Maybe someone can explain how you add the pics into your posts?   And where you find your pictures?   Thanks.

An early good morning to you on the other coast, wow you are up early!

 I don't know how to post pictures I just drag them to my desktop, then drag them to my post down below at the paper clip; the "Drag here to attach, or to choose files which is an active link ..

I'm pretty much a tombstone kind of guy, I use words chiseled  onto my monitor, but without too much difficulty I can drag from my desktop an image to a post like this one:

I can "find" pictures online and within my own photos. I just click and drag them to my desktop then to a post  "attachment". Amazing what smart people have thought up for even a tombstone kind of guy to be able to use. Leaves me "bugeyed" in amazement.

I don't think we can embed pictures any longer that are not already uploaded to worthy's server.    and what you show here is the only way I know to do that....   Most of the memes I post are what I copy from FaceBook, but most if not all the photo's I take are my own work from years of long driving vacations.  Then there are those few are from home.

First one is a stitched combination of six or seven shots of Crater Lake.   The second is the actual house that spawned the story of Anne of Green Gables...   both are my work.

Fun stuff-

We used  to have a whole category "Pictures" on another  Christian  Message Board just for pictures from around the world. I am technically deficient, but enjoyed  participating by looking and posting some of my own with just a drag and a drop.

Part of my job with Xerox was to understand why things were not looking correct when going through our printers so I had to be certified in both Photoshop and Acrobat.   It is amazing what one can do with those two programs.

sunsets/rises are my favorite thing to try and get into good photos....   the shuttle differences  in colors along with the huge width of contrast can be difficult to get with a simple camera and takes a very high talent to get on film.    lots of practice and failures to get what you want

And a little study in full black to full white monochrome. Taken at Castle in the Clouds above Lake Winnipesaukee, New Hampshire, USA.

I do still better appreciate monochrome over full color imaging. Not all that great at it, but have a little fun  on the computer with it even to this day.

Because we take long driving sight seeing vacations I practiced and practiced taking pictures without looking through a view finder.  Just point and shoot...   and it's really not easy to pick up the talent to do and keep things framed right....    sometimes in the mountains there is nowhere to stop to take that mountain valley so you just have to slow down point and shoot....   can't take your eyes off the road or you might run off the side of the mountain.   Then once you get kind of good at point and shoot you can blunder into pictures like the whale
