Windows on Wildlife- a PB extravaganza, part 3

Post by PimperneBloke »

Those of you that clicked the link in the first post may have guessed what is "something completely different"... those of you that didn't... well jolly shame on you :D
I started with the 400 as it was on the camera but soon switched to the 105 macro, as I felt a bit detached from the subjects:

Lovely. Do you find Imgur better than Flickr? Imgur seems to expand the photos better for a better view.

Thanks Bob
I've never used Flickr. Imgur is dead simple, it's just drag and drop. You can then add text to each photo as and when you want. I've found that more than one line of text leads to errors. Not sure how Flickr would do for my style of post, with a load of images and waffle in between. There's then a "link" button, so click that, which copies it, then paste it into the post you're creating here.

Also, with the Imgur images, you can just click through them within the post (little arrow on right of picture), or click on the image itself, and that takes you to the Imgur page, with bigger images, and no sign up required either

Cheers PB. Image hosting is new to me. Always post images directly on sites like RSPB and Facebook. I think I may switch to Imgur and give it a go.

Ah, I see you need to either signup via a Google account or an Apple one. Maybe I'll stick with FlickR :)
