Hi & thanks for the response and I might be being really dull!
I can only see methods for uploading from Flickr or imageshack. Is this the only way, as I don't use either?
I've only just gotten my first DSLR, so be gentle!
This was taken last week at a school nature education walk with the kids in a local park.
Canon EOS 1100D, 55-250mm, Program Mode, f/6.3, 1/320, ISO 2000.

ImageShack is free and easy to use. that's how I got started with the help of some of the veterans on this site, fwiw. The IS Uploader sits on my dock, I click on it drag the photo I want to post into it, wait for the photo to up load then copy the link and paste it onto the "insert image" window (little landscape icon on the top bar) and you're good to go. Just make sure you select an image size before clicking "upload." Hope this helps. Cheers.Hi & thanks for the response and I might be being really dull!

Thank you! I have a few more shots from the cathedral that I haven't processed yet. While wandering around the French Quarter I took a lot of shots of the different windows and building sides. I really liked the variety of the architecture in the area.
I bought a LumoPro 160 and some Cactus triggers but had problems with the Cactus misfiring often enough to frustrate me. Hope you don't run into the same problem
Here's mine for today. An afternoon storm front moving in on the Museum of Mining here in Butte:
Thanks, hopefully I have better luck with the Cactus units than you did.
For today:
I'm sorry to see that some mod unfamiliar with this sub-forum came through and shrank all of the photos on the last page.
Perfect timing with the lone sheep on the path.
Thanks, themumu. Getting good light is the eternal challenge; I assure you that it doesn't just follow me around everywhere I go.
One of my flash units is a LumoPro LP160, and I'm very happy with it. Enjoy!
These incredibly purple skies seem very common where you are. It's been a long time since I got to see a sunset like that myself. I like how the greens on the rocks really set off the purple colors.
I'm enjoying your night photos. It's always great to see someone really commit themselves to a genre for a while. Just a word of advice about capturing stars: it's generally recommended to have them look either like stars or like long trails, but not something in between. In other words, stars can look great in a photo when they're completely static or else very dynamic, but if it's anything in between, they usually end up looking unintentionally blurry. I know it's very difficult to capture these extremes; sometimes people have to combine exposures to make it work. Anyway, I look forward to seeing more!
Rose Castle, near Tarn Hows. No roses... and definitely not a castle. Just a bit of architectural whimsy, I think...
