     Sorry, Mike, been a bit busy.  I was trying to upload it onto the Forum from my Windows Photo Gallery, but could not highlight the actual link to transfer it onto the Forum.

     I have now cheated and you may see it soon, plus all the photographic details that are required......

     Bloody nora, mate !!!!!!!!!!

     One day I shall be able to cast off my L plates and do everything properly.  I don`t have the knowledge or experience on computers.................... I used to use pen and paper; much more reliable and easy  :twisted:

     But I do appreciate everybody`s help, you know!

Doug,
Are you using the "Windows Live Photos" where it has "Recent Photo Albums" ?

If yes, you must keep clicking on the image until it is full size - all the other smaller pictures are "thumbnails" and really just form part of the index/directory and won't go anywhere.

Then just do as I said in my earlier post
Growing Old is mandatory - Growing Up is optional

Do you think Jim looks like a film star in that picture?
It is healthier to be mutton dressed as lamb, than mutton dressed as mutton!

Jim

Seem to recall i was rather hungover when that was taken!

Fay

Wow you are saying that was on one of your bad days!!!!

And finally here it is, Doug and Roses, Moon and Jupiter.

Is that a Acer pseudoplatanus in the foreground.

PS......................Fay, it seems like you are trying to get around 'Jim the Chair' for something, your not going for the chairpersons place in next month AGM?  ;)

     Thank you Tony, for putting the image on here. And thanks everybody for the favorable comments.

     For the technically minded :-  Sony A380, f5.6, ISO 400 taken at 0.5 seconds.

    If I had the time, I would have put the 300mm lens on the camera, but then I don`t think I would have captured both the moon and Jupiter in the same frame.  It`s going to be an oooooooooge learning curve, especially putting images on here.  Thanks to EVERYBODY for their suggestions ..... there isn`t a lake near here ........... and their advice.  All will be taken into account in the fullness of time.  

    Thanks again, Doug.  :D

............... and I think the tree is a LEAFINUS FALLINUS WINTERUS, Tony.   :twisted:

That would have been my second choice, but due to the light I was mistaken.
