Always nice to hit the Pacific like this:
Ultra Long Hauler
It was such a nice day today, I could not resist some late season splashing....
Another reason to stay as high as the clouds allow you to whilst flying in certain regions in Latin America!

So I thought a thread for random flying photos might make sense. Essentially for those that don't make sense to do a trip report.
Here area few from today.
Ok. I'll bite (nice photos by the way JasonC). Here are a few.
Ca 20NM south of ENBO
Me on final at Rendsburg
Somewhere over Sweden I think
I'd agree with that. I like taking and sharing my photos and let them speaking for themselves. Another forum has a photography section of some kind but I don't see much posted there.
Just testing a pic from Flickr
No, it didn't work then ;-)
[my edit below - Peter]
[I just entered the bare link to the jpeg i.e. http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8248/8665338901_1658f6fa59.jpg into the box which pops up when you press the Image button, and on this occasion it worked]
Some picture library sites don't like images retrieved by a "machine" and I think flickr is one of them.
It could be more subtle e.g. several images retrieved in a rapid sequence from the same account.
I find the same with Photobucket which doesn't like to be used for small things like icons (emoticons). In fact Photobucket has recently become a horrid bloated site which plays stupid advertising movies while you are uploading. Also there is no way to retrieve a link to the image unless you have the very current java plug-in.
Imgur.com is a current favourite and very straightforward to use.
But ... see my edit of your post, where a bare link to the jpeg did work. Basically you need to test the link by pasting it into a browser URL window. If that displays the jpeg and nothing around it it should work.
Thanks Peter, that was about my best picture today (landing at Clacton), but next time I have some better pictures I'll either try the direct link or sign up for imgur.
