I was very happy with result of this quick snap I took of my daughter heading out for her first driving lesson. I was trialling the 300 2.8 on a D700 and literally just turned, called 'paparazzi' and shot as they backed out

following Wendellts sharpening tips here http://www.dslrusers.com/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=35341 gave me the best downsized rendition of the image I have so far managed.

I have tried a couple of sharpening actions that are way more detailed but not as effective as Wendells' method.

Many thanks Wendellt :up:

cheers R2

I assume this is the shot you wanted to show:

Curious!

Neither the OP's photo or ATJ's repetition of it were showing in my browser, just a black vertical line.
However, by right clicking on the line, I was able to pick up the URL of the image, and view it in a new window.
When I returned to this thread, still open in another tab, the image was showing in both posts, just as it should.

Why is this so?

I suspect some kind of cache issue with SmugMug.

Same symptom for me now, but the fix doesn't work for me.
I am not a member of Smugmug. Maybe that's why.

EDIT:
Using FF3 I previously tried "View image" off shortcut menu
I tried again using "Copy Link", opening a new window and pasting into the address bar. Could see image Ok
Went back to thread. Refreshed. Image appeared momentarily, then went away again.

There is no link. The vertical line is the image. If you right click on it it behaves just like an image and so you can do things like "View Image" or "Copy Image Location".

Nope. Nothing. Nada.

The link in the properties is http://dldigital.smugmug.com/photos/449 ... 8sjP-L.jpg but that shows a big blank page too.

:oops: :oops:
not sure what the problem is.
I posted it late last night (that may be the problem :?: )and was viewing fine from my end anyway.
I am at work now and smugmug is filtered out so will check when home again late tonight.
bugger :twisted:

Nice work!

Thanks for the link ATJ, I am not sure what has gone wrong here but it may be something stupid like a missing letter or something like that. I get this sort of problem with my pictures all the time as I host them on my own website so I type in all the addresses and often mess them up.

Cheers

I generally self host too. What I do is call up the picture on the browser. then cut and paste the address from the bar rather than type it out. Between my klutzy fingers and the @#$%$#@! keyboard it's the only way to go!

This has to be a SmugMug issue as the URL is indeed correct and can be used to display the image correctly.

Is your SmugMug gallery set to Public, or is it Unlisted?
Also, have you said "Yes" to allow external links?

I can now see the image. Don't know what has changed.

Back on topic.
I like this image. A quirky sense of fun shows through (surprising given the context!) If you hadn't said otherwise I'd have thought it was set up.

Is it working now? :?:
I have checked smugmug settings and seems all the right boxes are ticked!
thanks for looking

I dont trust the junk that Gallery2 produces so I type in the physical address of the original photo.
