Purchased a new digital camera. It's a Sony DSCR1 which is an impressive 10.3 MP and takes photos at 3888 x 2592 pixels, Quite a decent size.

I'm no professional photographer or Photoshop expert, however here are some samples of picts I took recently playing with the camera.

Surelle,

That is just so gorgeous. Puppies are just the most beautiful things.
Why can't you have one like this in your own back yard?

My son has allergies...although he's been tested for dogs, that came back negative, he seems to suffer with certain dogs, and not just ones that malt hair....we have friends who have supposed hypoallergenic breeds and depends on the time of year, my son will start wheezing

hopefully he'll grow out of it, but until then, I rely on cute photos
 
They have just put up the Christmas markets and Christmas tree/s in Prague's Old Town Square. All we need now is some snow.

Took these the night before last.

Seeing Japan seems to be so popular in this thread - thought I'd add a few from Ryukyu Islands (Okinawa) - 700 odd klm south of the Japanese mainland.

1 = grade 6 kids from my school performing Traditional Eisa drumming at their sports carnival.
2 = Historic village on Taketomi Island.
3 = One of man great beaches and snorkelling/diving on Tokashiki Island.

Dukey,
gotta feeling that "Kyo-to" (original capital) means "Southern capital" ;
and "To-kyo" means "Capital in the South" - sound about right ?
PS those kids look like budding Gene Krupers lol.
so tidy that place streets etc - no theft - no graffiti
I caught a train between Tokyo and Kyoto and this young schoolgirl jumped up to give me her seat - so polite .
 
Three for me.

The first is a picture taken on the new cable car in Hong Kong - just opened a month ago and the views are just amazing. It goes from Hong Kong Island to Lantau Island, home of the giant Buddha. It was very smokey that day, but even so the views were just amazing.

The next is sunset over Jimbaran Bay Bali. Sadly the cafe we usually ate at was the first restaurant attacked in the most recent bombing - cafe Menenga

Last, sunrise over San Felipe Mexico!

I spent a couple of days on Taketomi the first time I went to Japan, as well as a couple of days on Ishigaki and three days on Iriomote.

A wonderful part of Japan, and very laid-back compared to the mainland.

Cheers,
GP

hey borat, you on the left or right lol - sorry can't resist a jest
looks like a river race in amsterdam. ? - PS you must've heard that story about the little Dutch boy who got his finger stuck in the dyke lol. (no pun intended, lol - referring to Amsterdam)

Prospector , gr8 sunsets photos - Sydney here, and only rarely does the sun set on the sea here lol. BUT I was lucky enough to go to San Fran once - some "Cliffhouse" not too far from the Golden Gate. and the entire bar watched this magnificent sunset - maybe I was partly to blame - typical Aussie tourist waxing lyrical - anyway, the sun slipped melting ever so slowly below the distant horizon, (bar became deadly quiet as it did so - all watching) and ... as it disappeared, there was this loud APPLAUSE. lol - crazy San Franciso dudes. but very refreshing to the soul anyway thanks.
 
1. Sunset at Cebu - a yacht pulled up beside us a day or so later - had been attacked by pirates, (way south, near zamboanga) mother had been killed
2. Some hairy git at Truk - with a "grounded zero" (fortunately not ground zero - although it is probably where this particular pilot met his waterloo)
3. Cable car at Pago Pago -some of the braver of us (self taught hang glider pilots - not me i hasten to add - used to hang glide off this 1600 foot mountain - (edge of sunken volcano)

how do you post photos?
Click to expand...
ima, since I learnt this about a week ago myself , lol ...

1. you firstly make the photos the right size - I believe 800x800 max, but also (as I recall from rmory , about 100MB is biggest file - or maybe 90MB - it will tell you if it's too big.
In the two posts below, I use 800x600 for the bigger photos, and 640 x ? for the second post. If you go smaller still, it will show two photos side by side I believe.

2. Then start to "make reply" - go to "manage attachments" which is towards bottom of page (second box)
3. "browse" select yr photo after locating it "C:\path \photo.jpg" etc,
4. open , upload. - you should see that file added to the "shopping list"
5. do that 3 times (max of 3 photos )
6. go up to the text part of the message , and add some text - (it refuses to take photos without some message as well
7. and post reply or whatever the words are.
good luk.
 

OK how the hell do I reduce the photo? I need a tranquiliser with a elephant syrenge(?) to calm my frustrations!
