mistephenso 42 Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Here is a view of the cloud cover looking across the valley. Wow - now that's a view...! Where was this one taken from? Also, where is the lake a couple of posts above, if you don't mind sharing? 1 Link to post Share on other sites
villagefarang 15,790 Posted August 8, 2012 Author Share Posted August 8, 2012 It might be easier just to go to my Profile Page and click on my Google Map. I have this mountain view marked as “Sites-Doi Yao” on my map. This particular reservoir is marked as “Sites-Reservoir at Mae Pao”. Clicking many of my markers or labels will show you an image as well as the location. If you have any difficulty finding what you want just let me know. Link to post Share on other sites
phetphet 1,530 Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 villagefarang...some great pics. Do you have the colours set to vivid on your camera? I am planning to visit Chiang Rai in October, and am trying to book a 5 day bicycle tour in the region at the moment. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

zzdocxx 59 Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Did you ride your bicycle all the way up that hill? Whew! ! ! Link to post Share on other sites
villagefarang 15,790 Posted August 10, 2012 Author Share Posted August 10, 2012 Did you ride your bicycle all the way up that hill? Whew! ! ! No, I took the Ninja 650 out for a little run. I don’t ride much this time of year and I worry about the battery going dead on me, so it seemed like a short trip between thunderstorms might be in order. I have tried it on the Trek but didn’t get too far. It’s just too steep for me in places. I have seen others do it though. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I am planning to visit Chiang Rai in October, and am trying to book a 5 day bicycle tour in the region at the moment. I shoot in RAW and then run it through Aperture to compensate for the shortcomings of my pocket camera. Let us know if you are successful planning your trip. Link to post Share on other sites
villagefarang 15,790 Posted August 10, 2012 Author Share Posted August 10, 2012 Sitting at my computer I happened to look out my window, as I sometime do, and this is what I saw just minutes ago. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
zzdocxx 59 Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Again wow those last ones are really something. Sure the hill is steep but I think the heat and humidity would be the real killer. Meanwhile, I've been feeling a bit of a freeloader in this thread. I am just figuring out how to get pics off of my phone onto my computer and was thinking of posting a sunset pic from a few blocks from my house in San Diego. But it is actually off-topic, just that I am learning how to do it ! And to use photobucket ! Link to post Share on other sites
sceadugenga 3,040 Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 I find flickr a friendlier means of storing photos online and posting them on websites and forums. I used to use Picasa a lot but for some reason photos started disappearing off my online file. Link to post Share on other sites

sceadugenga 3,040 Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 (edited) Thanks Brian, I'll look into it. I tried it a few years ago but had a couple of problems so gave up on it, probably too easily, but I like the sound of some of those features.

zzdocxx 59 Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 I don't trust Microsoft. Eg. I have an email account that I hadn't used for a while and when I needed to check it for something, all my emails were deleted. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
