DawgTalkers.net Forums DawgTalk Everything Else... The Camera/Picture Taking Thread Pt. II

Great. Suddenly photobucket won't allow 3rd party hosting?

Any ideas for the non tech savvy type to share photos here?

Imgur is what I use. Very user friendly.

The Electric Forest.



Very cool.

I've downloaded the imgur app. Loaded my photo. Now I can't seem to get a link for posting here to work. Any tips?

Thanks. I got some cool images of him well before the crowd was let in. I'd love to share a couple but am struggling with the tech side of that right now.

I think I'm getting old.

I just right click the photo and "copy image address" (not image link), then paste it into the "upload a non floating image" address bar here. You can do that right from Imgur's upload page. I use Chrome and haven't had any issues.

postimg.org also works nicely

I'm on my iPhone.
Still struggling but have to run. I'll try later.

Here's the link I'm getting....

But I also get this one too...

Neither seem to want to post the actual image.

I just copied the image address and pasted it as I said earlier. Maybe it's an Iphoe issue?

Thanks again for posting this image.
For those that may have missed my post at the end of the last page, this photo was taken from a Billboard Magazine write up on the festival. We made the top spot on their list of "The 10 Crazy-Coolest Things We Saw at Electric Forest 2017".
(Yeah I'm 'bragging on myself' a bit but I'm pretty proud of myself and my friends. We've worked damn hard for years with very little recognition or pay. This recent success has been built over many many years of volunteered blood and sweat. It's great to see it start to pay off through our art effecting people in a way that deserves the ink. I'm excited to share my art for that reason.)

Here's the article.

Another image I took at Electric Forest. She was maybe 20-25' tall. Beautifully crafted.



This is her from the back.
The large flower in the foreground is one of 12 Psychedahlias we built for this event. Each slightly different in color or inner petal/stamin shape. Each with a sound reactive, spinning dome light at the flower center.


This is my sister standing under one of our Psychedahlias.

Figured out the issue. When adding the link an extra http// thing was being added at the front of my link. Erased that and I'm up and running again.
Thanks for the assistance. I hated Photobucket anyway. Constant pop ups. Constant crashes. Good riddance.

Just have to give a huge shout out to my friend, PortlandDawg! I know him and the other half of his art making venture project and both are tremendous, creative and top notch people of the highest order! Super proud of you Portland! Billboard?! WOW! You guys deserve all the praise you get. Looking forward to seeing you when you return to <sunny!> PDX!

Great stuff PortlandDawg ..congrats on the success at the Electric Forest!

Happy Fourth of July from World Trade Center "Freedom Tower".

I have an nyc shot glass from laguardia airport. (may have been jfk) from before 911. It has the old nyc skyline with the twin towers.

Its pretty cool.

beautiful everyone! How does one get a picture to show up in this thread?

Scroll to the top of the page and you'll find the answer. I had issues with my old host and had the same question. Others answered and got me going again.

Trying this - taken at the Lorain Carnegie Bridge July 2 - notice the top of the little boat.

On the Cape Hatteras Ferry. This is in North Carolina with our Teardrop camper on it's maiden voyage. We covered 3000 miles and 12 states in 2 weeks. Had a blast!

Man, those are some phenomenal pictures. I'm always so impressed when I visit this thread.

I'm putting this post out there to get some good vibes... I just recently moved, and I can't seem to find the bag that holds my DSLR. I'm getting very worried as we've completed the move in, and have gone through all the storage areas, boxes and bins that could have the camera in it and it hasn't turned up.

This is bad...

Still, I can't imagine where it could possibly be other than tucked away in some random place in my house. Putting this out there for some good vibes from the dawgs so my camera can find its way back to me.

This is not a picture I took but a short video sent to me.

A short walk around the yard yielded this photo. The bug isn't in perfect focus but I still like the image.

a cropped version of my previous downtown Cleveland photo - am I cropping this OK? Thanks for your patience with me.

Some recent travels:

Any of you shutterbugs got any advice for taking pictures or video of the eclipse on Monday?

Stare directly at it with your unprotected eyes. It'll burn an ever lasting image into your retina. It's like carrying a photo with you wherever you go.

Hey thaaaankss! Eye wuz tinkin' o' doin' jes dat!

Even better.



This way you can see the eclipse real good.

But seriously folks, get yourself a cheap low-hydrogen, consumable electrode charged flux cored chromium layered, mild or low alloy steel, gas tungsten arc with a speedglas auto-darkening filter welding helmet.



Just throw it out afterwards.

Or even better.



You can play in the deep end of the pool afterwards.

It's a ploy by the Trump administration to make money for those Chinese sweatshops making those "safety" goggles. All those things will protect you from is the full experience of an unhindered view of the eclipse.

A few photos of my trip to Angkor Wat and surrounding temples. This place is amazing. It was my #1 bucket list place on the planet to visit. It didn’t disappoint. When I first touched it my eyes welled up. To think these places were built over 1000 years ago...by hand...it’s just staggering.

A bucket list site to be sure. Thanks for sharing the pics!

Temple of Naga, the serpent dragon.



Ta Prohm. The ‘Tomb Raider temple’.

my view of downtown Cleveland from work

Is that a water treatment plant?

Those Cambodian temples have always fascinated me. Great pics, and please share more of them!

I will when I get a little more time. Packing up to head to the airport this morning. Leaving Cambodia and heading back to Thailand. Going to sit on a beach for a few days in southern Thailand called Railay Beach. Long travel day ahead of us.
