p.s. anyone else not seeing these? Has FM changed the way it shares photos? I used to be able to just drop the . jpeg URL...
I don't see them here but when I copied the url into a new window then I could see the image. The third one was my favourite

Nice IR photos Joakim, I didn't realise that the M246 had an IR capability.
Thanks folks... anything showing now? I just copied them into a new window and now they're rendering for me, but I appreciate this may only be showing for me. If not, I guess I'll have to contact my host at some point, as I am thinking them might be limiting hotlinking for some reason.

Hi
Still nothing I'm afraid. I use Safari as my browser but I loaded this page in Firefox where I can open a console window that displays any errors and when clicking on one of your images I got the html error 403 Forbidden if that helps.

Maybe it's some kind of web Brexit
MAYBE! Thanks for letting me know, I'll pass this info on. Sorry for the faff! Keep up the great works guys!
I've already posted these above: On LUF, several people liked the first one better. First, this is a restaurant called Da Conch Shack on Providenciales, an island in Turks & Caicos. The man in both pictures is the same waiter.
At first, when I examined in Lightroom the pictures shot that day, I instantaneously selected the second picture as the one to process, like selecting a frame from a contact sheet of a roll of 35mm film. After that I went on to process the first picture, which I liked less. However, when deciding which picture to post to my flickr site, I selected the first picture because I thought viewers would like it more because, overall, it's a pleasing composition in terms of balance, the top window not being cut off, and giving more of what people often call a "sense of place" — it is also a prettier scene: I'm using the word "prettier" intentionally here.
Nevertheless, I kept on looking at the second picture and continued to feel that it's a better photograph: a more dynamic composition, and I liked the oranges in the sand, at the bottom of the frame, against the blues in the image; but, most strikingly, I liked the gesture of the tree matching the gesture of the man, "gesture" in the sense of attitude, as in a "gesture drawing." For me, the second image says more and says it more forcefully — more meaning and more expression. In this sense, the chair in the left bottom foreground I see helpful rather than, as many might feel, unneeded.
Generally, my feeling is that, in judging images, our instantaneous first choice is, in most cases, likely to be the right one — the right one for ourselves, that is. Which picture do you prefer, and why?
