Magnificent D70 I love mine.........this time with a 70 - 300 Nikkor D lens.
I get to see this bucolic rural view every evening, it's right up my alley, hope you like it. There is a bit of image qual. loss in the upload - can't help that (I think?)

Cheers

Look at the link. Notice how it says album=random&cat That basically tells Pixspot to choose a random image. This just happened to be yours when you were looking at Pixspot. To be the correct link it needs to have album=xx where xx is a number. Best way is to go to your gallery, click the photo and then use the resultant URL. I think the link you want is http://www.pixspot.com/displayimage.php?album=236&pos=1

You can also embed the image like this

Having seen someone else have this problem today I've updated my How to embed a link instructions to cover this

Many Thanks

Got it. This is the thumbnail. If you want the larger version, click the thumbnail in pixspot and use the properties of the image this shows you.

Easy once you know :D

Beautiful colors, very serene and peaceful country image. Country scenes like this do it for me too :D

Nice border too...
