Dark Room *don't bump into things*

[mockney piers]

To post an image right click (or whatever the mac equivalent is, apple click?) on the image in question and select properties. This will bring a little pop up with its info. Then come to the forum and select the image url button above the text box where you normally post. It's the one with the hills and sun. Then paste the image's path off the properties there, make sure you have the full path beginning with http:// or ftp://

If it's a file on your computer then do an attachment as per normal then click on your attachment once its up and do exactly as above, or of course put it on a hosting site like flickr. Flickr actually provides you with all the code to put photos up on sites, complete with the links, attribution and mouse overs.

Another room in the lounge. Sheesh.

Thought it might be a nice place to share photos for those into photography or who just like great photos.

I know we have flickr for this sort of thing, but what the hey, not everyone's a flickrite are they.

I'll kick it off with this, by the chap who first inspired me to take photography more seriously, a canadian by the name of Sam. I've watched his interest and enthusiasm and skill grow in a parabola roughly 2 years ahead of mine, and he continues to do so. If I have a 5D and a 100mm f2.8 in a couple of years time, I'll be very happy :)

Mind you if I'm taking pictures of snow in london I'll be pleasantly surprised as it does seem to be avoiding us these past years.

Ooh, and try to link back to appropriate sites with attribution where possible

Saw this yesterday on the Southbank and absolutely loved it. Stopped me in my tracks. By Rankin

What HAVE you started.

My cat, Spacey. I know, I know.

I took this myself, with one of those film cameras.

I am a member of a group on Facebook called something along the lines of:

"I still use film cameras and play music on vinyl" or something.

My other half is a photographer - he'll be a member of EDF soon. Oh heck is there enough bandwidth?

Are we all not aware there is a world shortage of pixels?

 

[PeckhamRose]

OK how do I put the photo IN the message and not as an attachment? By the way, I am merely an amateur photographer but I do carry a camera on me at all times, and not the one that is part of my mobile phone, either! I'd like to see the photos that people on the forum take! Having said that, the snow crystals and DGilmour shots are fabulous.

[mockney piers]

OK PR, have posted some instructions at the top of the page and took the liberty of posting your cat up too.

There are quite a few snappy types on the forum, and their photos are to be found scattered throughout, I just thought it'd be nice to get a place where people can appreciate good photography.

Here's one from a forumite of our own dear Peckham Rye

Wow! That's really beautiful Mockney.

Also, there are a couple of really great pics on Dulwich Mums blogspot at the moment - the Millenium Wheel on New Years Eve. What fun!

One of mine from the Blue Mountains. Taken on my old compact which was destroyed by sand later on the same trip.

That's a great one of the blue mountains, not sure I'd seen that before.

Yes, Wee Quinnie, it's a beautiful photo, by our very own BarryRoad in case you're curious.

You guys are simply amazing! Come on, post some more...

[lozzyloz]

Nice idea for a new room MP. Here's a Crab Spider I found in the garden that's often unnoticed because it's smaller than a Rice Crispie!

Edited because image was too big, got there in the end.

[dulwichmum]

OHMYGOD! I hate spiders...

Runs from Dark Room...

[PeckhamRose]

WOW thanks guys! And thanks for posting Spacey's Headshake within my message.

What fab photos you lot have taken!

[mockney piers]

One Ant discovered a little while back, but definitely worth a post.

 

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

That is stunning. Looks like washing-up liquid but I still want to drink it!

Not slickness but fun I hope you agree. Randoms.

And THIs is not a trick photo.

All my photos are taken on FILUM cameras and this is at Mudchute City Farm south of the Isle of Dogs.

You can tell how long ago I took it by how many buildings are missing that have since been built!

I LOVE llamas, me.

I'm a total sucker for tilt shift shots. Most are fake, where you mess about with them in photoshop a bit to make them look like a miniature world, but even so good ones are hard to find.

These from BeckyE and Roger worked ok I reckon

"London, proving you can photograph the sun."

Yeah, had a go meself once.

Loved the crazy garden there woodie!

 

[PeckhamRose]

I LOVE this one, and my mate Ian in Cumbria raised this sheep as the sheep's mummy died giving birth. But BlackSheep got adopted by the llamas - llamas are very protective of sheep. COuldn't stop him becoming Ian's dinner one day though. How we laughed. That bloody sheep gave me more bruises on my shins so clearly deserved to be dinner.

Nice pix yourself Mockney!

Mockney, post the photo you took on holiday that I thought looked rather like Narnia. That was lovely.
