newbie - again
Heading for the sun!! Not found it in San Sebastian. Decided to now cut across to Valencia given the snow conditions around Madrid.

I visited a local body of water today to road test that 35x mega lens I took the Moon picture with recently. The water is surrounded by bird hides so at least I had something to brace it on.

Even so, this one isn't quite how I wanted it to be because the shutter speed was too low at 1/60 sec. It's also the Devil's own job to focus it accurately. Anyway this was the best of some early attempts:

At another bird hide I increased the shutter speed to 1/125 sec and spotted this Long-Tailed Tit flitting about in the foreground. They don't stay still for very long so the continuous shooting feature comes in handy.

I also spotted this character. Not sure what species it is but it's a bit smaller than most garden birds - is it a Wren all fluffed up for winter or is it something else?

Weird - they're showing OK in my Google Chrome browser.

The three bird images (if you're curious) are in my Broken Link Removed.
Very weird, mine's google chrome too...
Love your pictures though - thanks for adding the link (y)

I can see them, if anyone can't it's probably a local problem to them - likely a slow connection.

Maybe, but I always resize them to 1000 pixels wide before I upload them and the biggest is only 182Kb.

Curiouser and curiouser. They were uploaded as .jpg images just like all my others. Have you tried the gallery link in post #13030 above?
No. I can’t see them there either.

Clicking the link brings up the gallery page headline with the word “Error” and the sub clause “you do not have permission to view Media” even though I am logged in correctly and can see any other photos posted recently.

I am currently in Tenerife so that may have something to do with it, as I am using a Hotel internet connection. It is a very good connection so I don’t think it’s anything to do with the speed as I have sent and received pics by e-mail and even posted one in “pic of the day” on the site.

Trying to view your photos on the original post shows small icons of photos with a Red Cross through them.

Can you see the small image below? It's a picture of Red Square (ha ha), uploaded exactly the same way as the 3 bird pics. Its full filename is

When you mentioned 'Media' I wondered if I'd uploaded via the wrong link (ie the Video Clip icon) but that button doesn't permit .jpg uploads.

No.

Exactly the same.

Your posts shows an icon of a photo with a Red Cross through it.

The link leads to a page with the “Error” message, “you do not have permi to view Media”.

It appears that @CWH has the same problem so I am not alone. I wonder if @Jim, our illustrious leader can explain.
