Wow, love the mountains there! I use Flickr myself, but a trick I’ve been using to get Lemmy to display a thumbnail / direct photo link is:

-Open Flickr in desktop mode (force in your mobile browser settings if on your phone)

-Choose Share

-Choose BBCode tab

-Copy the link for ‘Original’ and then copy just the portion with the url for your image to paste into Lemmy

I love that sense of isolation here!

I like this - made me want to find out how you did it

Oh man, thanks! I picked up photography to have something to do while going around with my daughter (now turning 3). I’ve really been enjoying it. Capturing her doing her thing has gotten me used to quick framing and camera settings to keep up with her crazy kid movements, hah. I wouldn’t post her photos online but it’s almost all her and then 5% stuff like this!

Wow, thanks! I’m new enough that anyone liking a photo is quite exciting, hah.

Reminds me of that shot from Gladiator, hah. Really nice!
