    I don't think I would buy one based on that photo!
    Of course, it could be some rotation stabilisation resting position.

    I signed onto it because Flickr at the time looked like it was designed by a 12 year old. It allows good configurability of the backgrounds, galleries. Downside? You have to upload multiple images as zip or other such files or do them one by one.

    I'm not a photographer but do enjoy taking and sharing photographs. With
    my new iPhone, I took photographs in a local park yesterday and then
    uploaded a slide-show I'd made on my iMac to YouTube. There seems to be considerable denigration of picture quality, as you can see here:- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-CHtqaF_TDc

    Have you any suggestions as to how best to show a collection of
    photographs to others. I sneaked a peek at some of yours. Although the
    quality of your work is excellent the pictures are small relative the
    size of my screen.

    Most screens being HD or 4K now do need a decent megapixel count. I'm not sure what the default on phone camera is but something between 5-20mp will fill a screen well. Downside is theft of pictures. I had two stolen by people who used them elsewhere.

    I've never had to upload images via zip that I can remember, I joined in 2006 maybe you joined earlier

    Yes youtube do compress movies by quite a bit although difficult to know by how much.
    I've noticed this when uploading my 4K videos of bands to utube the original files straight off the camera
    look significantly better.

    But I also noticed that I couldn't select a higher res. than 720
    whereas on my 4K video you can select 1080p HD, or 1440p HD or 2160 4K.
    (Via the lillte standard gear wheel icon)

    So your slide show maybe needs exporting at a higher res. if that can be done.
    Another option would be to use iMove and add single frames , the default time for each frame/picture is 4 seconds.

    so if your pictures are of high enough quality which I assume they should be from your new iPhone,
    then try imovie and export in 4K.




    Have you any suggestions as to how best to show a collection of
    photographs to others.

    Making a a slide show or video and uploading to icloud, utube or dropbox etc

    Even when I viewed the 'ducks' videos they were much better when downloaded from icloud than viewed via smugmug.


    You could try a few different sites using the same video/slide show
    and see which works best.

    I sneaked a peek at some of yours. Although the
    quality of your work is excellent the pictures are small relative the
    size of my screen.

    I will be doing that, but in the meantime I made this by doing as you

    but I know there;s a option for that in icloud .

    There is, indeed, such an option. I've been using it to view the recent photographs of a friend - and then also sharing images with my sister.

    I then downloaded the 4GB+ movie.

    I'm not sure HOW you did that.

    I found them there - but they weren't put there by me!!!

    What where ?????

    Here's a screenshot:- https://jmp.sh/sfxjxxB

    Have YOU got such items in YOUR iCloud Drive?

    You could try a few different sites using the same video/slide show
    and see which works best.
    I will be doing that, but in the meantime I made this by doing as you
    had suggested. These images are photographs of paintings, some tainted
    by time,

    We're all tainted by time ;-)

    You're still a youngster! ;-)

    Some of those images are photos - taken with an iPad - of old
    photographic prints

    but good enough to get the message across I think.

    Good image! :-D

    Can you tell me the major advantages of using this service
    compared to
    storage sites which are free? https://pbase.com/pricing.html

    I signed onto it because Flickr at the time looked like it was
    designed by a 12 year old. It allows good configurability of the
    backgrounds, galleries. Downside? You have to upload multiple
    images as zip or other such files or do them one by one.
    Thank you, Rich πŸ˜„

    I'm not a photographer but do enjoy taking and sharing photographs.
    With
    my new iPhone, I took photographs in a local park yesterday and then >>>>> uploaded a slide-show I'd made on my iMac to YouTube. There seems
    to be
    considerable denigration of picture quality, as you can see here:-
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-CHtqaF_TDc

    Yes youtube do compress movies by quite a bit although difficult to
    know by how much.
    I've noticed this when uploading my 4K videos of bands to utube the
    original files straight off the camera
    look significantly better.

    But I also noticed that I couldn't select a higher res. than 720
    whereas on my 4K video you can select 1080p HD, or 1440p HD or 2160 4K. >>>> (Via the lillte standard gear wheel icon)

    So your slide show maybe needs exporting at a higher res. if that
    can be done.
    Another option would be to use iMove and add single frames , the
    default time for each frame/picture is 4 seconds.

    so if your pictures are of high enough quality which I assume they
    should be from your new iPhone,
    then try imovie and export in 4K.
    Thank you so much for your kind comments, Dave.

    I've spent a while experimenting.
    Have you any suggestions as to how best to show a collection of
    photographs to others.

    Making a a slide show or video and uploading to icloud, utube or
    dropbox etc

    Even when I viewed the 'ducks' videos they were much better when
    downloaded from icloud than viewed via smugmug.
    *Please will you explain* how 'ducks' videos got onto your iCloud.

    I think there might be a default stting where if you click on a linkn in someone elses iCloud it copies the file to your icloud account.

    This is because I asked someone to view a movie I put on icloud and they said they couldn't because they didn;t have enough space on thier icloud .

    So I told them how he could download it to his local Mac rather than icloud.
    I'd check my icloud but my phone is at home so I can;'t access the security SMS I just sent myself. as I'm at work (lunchtime about to end)

    I have not discovered that.

    I think it was called something like copy to my icloud (or it could have been in the previous version called iDisk)

    This is because I asked someone to view a movie I put on icloud and they said they couldn't because they didn;t have enough space on thier icloud .
    I don't understand what you claim.

    I wanted to share a movie, a home made one with a friend who has a slow connection and pretty cluess with tech.
    So I asked a friend to try my link to see if he could get it OK as he had a resonably fast connection.
    He said he won't try it because his iCloud is almost full.
    I had no idea what he meant by that , so I then asked someone else to try it.


    So I told them how he could download it to his local Mac rather than icloud.

    I'd check my icloud but my phone is at home so I can;'t access the security SMS I just sent myself. as I'm at work (lunchtime about to end)

    Not me, I'm not teathered to my phone like most people , my students can harldy walk with looking up instrgram to explain
    how to put one foot in front of the other, with a video of how to do it.



    Perhaps you'll check later - at home.
    Just did.

    I'd say it depends on you, no one else can decide.
    If you regularly use it then I'd say no. I went to have a quick look and after a few photos I had to wait 5 seconds while an ad loaded.
    I think you're also limited to 200 photos for some that might be enough.

    I signed onto it because Flickr at the time looked like it was designed by a 12 year old. It allows good configurability of the backgrounds, galleries. Downside? You have to upload multiple images as zip or other such files or do them one by one.
    I've never had to upload images via zip that I can remember, I joined in 2006 maybe you joined earlier

    Individually, no. As a group, yes.
    I have a free account with Flickr. Would you consider that sufficient
    for most needs?

    I'd say it depends on you, no one else can decide.
    If you regularly use it then I'd say no. I went to have a quick look and after a few photos I had to wait 5 seconds while an ad loaded.
    I think you're also limited to 200 photos for some that might be enough.

    I use dropbox for the odd image or file I want to make public or share with, but flicker for photos and youtube for videos
    Thanks for your comments WhiskyDave. :-D

    Do you EVER use the sharing facility of ICloud Drive?

    Yes I think 3 times this year.

    Yes, the first was a dandylion sort of flower and then photos of painting then a blank screen and ad for 5 seconds or so and says sign in to flikr pro .
    But I'm at work so don;t use such things for work .
    There's also a little scroll bar I can use to faster navigate and choose any photo I want to look at.

    Got these recently at work so I'm well prepared for halloween fun ;-)

    Yes, the first was a dandylion sort of flower and then photos of painting then a blank screen and ad for 5 seconds or so and says sign in to flikr pro .
    But I'm at work so don;t use such things for work .
    There's also a little scroll bar I can use to faster navigate and choose any photo I want to look at.

    Thank you. You are simply confirming that when one puts something 'up'
    on-line that it's 'up for grabs' by anyone who chooses to look.

    Got these recently at work so I'm well prepared for halloween fun ;-)

    This place was simply somewhere 'safe' away from my computer to store
    the images. I'd actually forgotten that I'd put them here! :-)

    On flickr (well I have the pro ) you can set permissions, public, private , friends/family or group permissions
    if you want only members of a particular group of people you want to have access to those images.

    So I would have put those images for 'safe storage' as private.


    Such a private tag might be a navy party where things go on board a ship that'd you'd only want those on that ship to see.
    You know what I mean the find the goldern rivet while wearing a gimp mask etc... ;-)
    What goes on a ship stays on the ship.

    Some of my photos are private mostly because they are higher resolution images of the public ones
    or because they aren''t of any interest to most I have about 200 photos of my cat in various sleeping positions
    which of course is of little interset to most and these would appear as my photostream .

    If you regularly use it then I'd say no. I went to have a quick look and after a few photos I had to wait 5 seconds while an ad loaded.
    I think you're also limited to 200 photos for some that might be enough.

    I use dropbox for the odd image or file I want to make public or share with, but flicker for photos and youtube for videos
    Thanks for your comments WhiskyDave. :-D

    Do you EVER use the sharing facility of ICloud Drive?

    Yes I think 3 times this year.
    Thanks, chum! :-D
    If you look at THIS image, can you view any of my other photographs?

    I had hope that you would answer my question.

    Which Question ?
    If you look at THIS image, *can you view any of my other photographs*?

    I said I did.
    QUOTE "I went to have a quick look and after a few photos I had to wait 5 seconds while an ad loaded. "
    Yes, you did say that. Apologies.

    Just to be sure ..... you saw not only the photograph which I shared >>>> with you, but you could also see others on my account page. Is that correct?
    BTW I thinkl when showing such things you should actually give the name of the painting too and any other info such as location or when painted
    where possible.
    I really DO take your point, but there is another link to get there:-
    https://www.flickr.com/photos/42312972@N04/albums/72177720298310668

    If you scroll, there is a lot of information available.
    This place was simply somewhere 'safe' away from my computer to store
    the images. I'd actually forgotten that I'd put them here! :-)

    On flickr (well I have the pro ) you can set permissions, public, private , friends/family or group permissions
    if you want only members of a particular group of people you want to have access to those images.

    So I would have put those images for 'safe storage' as private.
    Agreed. I'm not sure I can mark photos in that way. Any idea about that?
    Such a private tag might be a navy party where things go on board a ship that'd you'd only want those on that ship to see.
    You know what I mean the find the goldern rivet while wearing a gimp mask etc... ;-)
    What goes on a ship stays on the ship.
    You must have vastly different life experiences to me!
    Some of my photos are private mostly because they are higher resolution images of the public ones
    or because they aren''t of any interest to most I have about 200 photos of my cat in various sleeping positions
    which of course is of little interset to most and these would appear as my photostream .
    Post a few. I really like cats! :-D

    D.


    Post a few. I really like cats! :-D

    Ah! The real purpose of the internet is finally revealed. Cat photos!
    :-)
