    I have yet to post my first image .....

    I note that the forum members all seem to use Flikr, Photo bucket, Image shack etc etc. May I ask why? Is it not possible to post an image from my pc to the forum?

    Re: I have yet to post my first image .....

    I use Flickr as it gives me a source to load images that others outside the forum can also see.
    For example a number of my camera club friends also use Flickr so we can view each other's images.
    Also I find loading to flickr is less restrictive than the forum image restrictions.

      Laurence, the answer is that you can, but I have always used Flickr because it is easy!

        You can post an image direct from your PC by using the "insert image" icon but I have found that it degrades the image so prefer to use a third party host such as flickr

                I like that. Some nice reflections. Flood waters or just a river from a road? Whereabouts have you taken it? Do you mind sharing the exif data at all please?

                  The picture is of Emsworth Mill Pond looking north(ish) back toward the town. There is a path on the mill pond wall.
                  I am not sure how to copy the EXIF but here are the details

                  Canon 550
                  Tokina 11 - 16mm set to a focal length of 15mm
                  30 secs @ 6.3
                  ISO 200

                  I used an off camera flash to light the shrub which I fired at some random point during the exposure

                  I used Lightroom 5 to reduce the luminance noise a bit

                  I shot it at about 0630

                    I just took a look at your 500px pics. Getting a compliment from such an accomplished photographer feels a bit like getting an Oscar!

                        I use ImageShack because most of the forums I post on will only accept images that are uploaded elsewhere, and just want the link. Forums like this one, where you can upload an image direct, are becoming less and less common. So, as I've had to obtain an ImageShack account, I may as well use it.
