Wow, love the mountains there! I use Flickr myself, but a trick I’ve been using to get Lemmy to display a thumbnail / direct photo link is:

-Open Flickr in desktop mode (force in your mobile browser settings if on your phone)

-Choose Share

-Choose BBCode tab

-Copy the link for ‘Original’ and then copy just the portion with the url for your image to paste into Lemmy

I love that sense of isolation here!

Appreciate that! Was using my Sony a7iv. I had these really thick thermal gloves on - I’m from South Florida and it was freezing. I’d recently switched to all-manual shooting and couldn’t quite manipulate the dials (especially ISO). I was ill-prepared overall to be out there and having wet pants after falling through made the rest of those shots even more fun…lots of wind off the lake!

Wow, thanks! I’m new enough that anyone liking a photo is quite exciting, hah.

Reminds me of that shot from Gladiator, hah. Really nice!

I have zero real idea how the fediverse works yet, so I’ll take what I can get!
