Quite a pretty picture, always difficult to get the setting right when the Moon is in this phase.

Roger, instead of pasting the link to the gallery into the page, paste the URL (Right click on the full size image and copy and paste the URL address)  into the button underneath the bold button, this will insert the photo as an image.

Like so:

Plenty of info on how to best post images in this forum. Start here --> http://forum.orpington-astronomy.org.uk/index.php?topic=1837.0

I figure, at least with images from the OAS gallery, it's better to put the "normal_" sized gallery image in the IMG tag (as it's kinder for anyone using mobile data), but it's also good to include the link to the gallery page (which will, of course, include lots of technical details) from which folk can get at the full-sized version if they wish...

Indeed, the "thumb_" version is usually a tad on the small size, though just occasionally (mostly for small planet images) it has ended up being as big as it gets... ;)
