Dear David,
I am fascinated by your images. One of my geoscience degrees happened to be glacial geomorphology...
Nicely done... :)

Great images everyone... :)
Here is another image from this past September, while I was out and about checking the brisk fall season within Kananaskis Provincial Park.

I love the detail in the large images. How is it possible with the size limitations imposed by the forum? The size allowed is max pixels 650 and 178KB IIRC. I'm on a dialup connection and I still find it worth the wait especially Jiri's work and Jim Kitchen's work and David Hedley's Alps images are truly glorious. How are these large images posted?

Thanks very much for your comments, Jim and Denise. The glaciers in that part of the Alps are truly extraordinary, and even more so elsewhere where it is much more difficult to bring a camera. I'm aiming to do some more over the next few weeks, before winter is fully here, although we did get caught in a snowstorm near the Matterhorn last weekend.
The contrast and tones in Jim's last image are remarkable.
Denise, I don't know about the forum size limits but some of these are slightly larger than 650px/178KB. My guess is the larger ones are hosted on a different server and the size limits are only imposed on those images hosted locally. I agree... there is some truly breath-taking imagery here.

wonder where this leads to? FP4+ Nikkor 150mm, in perceptol.
Monsta, that' wonderful. All of the attributes of that print are so well chosen...

You may have stumbled on the doorway to hell. :) Nice shot though, interesting.
Denise, if you host your picture somewhere else, such as your own web site or on one of the photo sites, you can link to it in your post directly by enclosing the URL to that picture between image tags. The forum software will help you if you click on the picture icon above that reads "Insert Image" in the tool tip when you mouse over it. A window will pop up where you enter the web address of the image (the image link itself, not the page on which the image is displayed). Some web pages don't make images accessible to external linking, so beware of that.
That's how most images are displayed in these threads. There are more sophisticated methods, but this is easiest and it works if you have a way to display images on the web.
I only link to images small enough to fit on the screens most people use, even on their laptops. My usual maximum limit for a web-hosted image is 700 to 900 pixels in the long dimension.
The best-looking images displayed that way are downsampled to the final resolution, and then sharpened afterwards for the target display. I also target the image to the sRGB colorspace for web display which is the default color space for most viewers.
