Mount Shasta on father's day, 2014 from the north.
Here is a slide show of pictures taken while aviating in Oregon - set to music that makes them more palatable:
Glad you enjoyed the pictures. It was fun taking them. Had only intended them for personal memories.Irish_Armada said:
The airport at 1:06 is Independence State, 7S5.
I count 17 different airports that I traveled to or from while taking those photos. Since it is a collection of photos taken over 4 years (flying 2 different planes and 3 different cameras) it is hard to assign a count to number of days involved. Not more than 3 airports in any one day. Typically just one.
On my way back from a trip from Creswell (77S) to Beaver Marsh (2S2) to Malin (4S7) Oregon I spotted a helicopter this afternoon hovering around Mount Thielsen in Oregon. I have no idea what they were doing - training, rescuing someone, doing a photo shoot, or what. Mount Thielsen has a rather distinctive craggy peak to it. Kind of neat with snow on it too.
I don't know what is normal (some sizes here seem excessive IMHO,) but I factor in typical screen size statistics that have been gathered (e.g. some numbers here, among other places) and try to stay under 1280x1024 pixels. Other limit to consider is file size; as a matter of courtesy to lower bandwidth users, I'm hesitant to post or link to anything over a megabyte. Ideally a quarter megabyte or less unless the picture detail is important.weirdjim said:
Those are cloud streets. They are of particular interest to glider pilots; I first learned about them during glider training. More detail here: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horizontal_convective_rollsJay Honeck said:
You mean like the one below?FloridaPilot said:
To post it in that size, I first clicked on your smaller image and it was displayed in a pop-up dialog.
I then clicked on that dialog and my browser (Firefox in this case) opened the image full-scale in another tab.
I then went to that tab, copied the URL (which is http://www.pilotsofamerica.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=37574&d=1420947332 ) and pasted it into the dialog I got when I clicked on the "Insert Image"
Normally you should be able to get a URL to the full size image when you upload an image to PoA that you can then copy into the "Insert Image" URL entry dialog.
Oh - and to avoid such outrageously large images, use an image editor to scale it before uploading.
Since most displays are under 2048 pixels wide, that should be a reasonable upper limit on any one image.
Unless there is a good reason for needing the resolution, 1024 pixels is probably a better upper limit.
EDIT: The image was so large I decided to remove it.
When was this?Pilawt said:
