Wonderful what "bat-shit" fertiliser will do - 45 baht a kilo from Supercheap

 

My old bougies (about 12 years old) have hardly had a flower (bract) for the last couple of years, so very happy to see the results of the "bat-shit" fertiliser.

Jimmy, the three pictures of my bougainvillea (here) were all original photos and uploaded to Thaivisa (about 3.4 MB each). All were 4896x2752!

 

I checked after posting that they had been downsized OK and they looked fine.

 

So I won't be uploading to Imgur or Flickr any more - the new forum software appears to handle them perfectly.

Good to hear, JSB... thanks for feed back 

Those I posted are old as one can see from the date when I used to upload larger size images to Picasa...

 

Now have new hard drive so have space to do either way!

Yeah, all seems to come correct here now...

For my part I resize the pics to 1024 (including borders) on my computer before uploading on TVF, and in some threads (street for example), sometimes my pics come smaller than others.

I can't figure why. Well I don't bother anyway...

I've to purchase one too...

Can't figure one HD or a bunch of SD cards which is better.

First pic ever with my "new-second-hand" Zuiko 45 f/1.8 MFT lens received today.

Even at f/1.8, as above, it's a surprisingly good performer.

At f/2.5 and up, it's just a killer!

A little bit dog-earred,but still not bad for an Isaan rose!
