I didn't know about this group.
I'm a slow learner.

Here are some from Bern.

Bern has a bunch of these statues in the old city.
These are some of the 'Brunnen" around the area.

When I initially did that when I posted a couple of weeks ago
the pictures were huge on the screen. I did no manipulation before taking the files from my camera
so the the jpeg are in the 7-14 mega pixel range.
This way I could size the pixel count, length and width, to a more manageable size.
At least on my computer screen.

... because the [url] and [img] tags are being ignored here. The script here automatically makes an HTML image tag for any URLs referencing graphic files, so it's going to display exactly the same here if you delete everything else and just post that URL.

I cross my photos in The Lounge and here if I'm not feeling lazy.

Main post goes here - then I use the same title in the subject line with the addition - - Posted in Photography.

Then I post the link to the post here in the message text. As in - [link: hattip: https://www.democraticunderground.com/103698457|Daily Touch of France] - I've adjusted the html code so you can see what it looks like.
