High ISO night shots
Lens: Pentax FA 24-90 mm Camera: K20D Photo Location: Lapu Lapu City ISO: 3200 Shutter Speed: 1/6s Aperture: F3.5 
Posted By: shirey, 10-12-2019, 09:02 AM

My Pentax K20D may be old, but it still performs. At ISO 3200 I got a little highlight burnout, which were recovered to some degree by pulling the exposure down in RAW editing. The blackness of the night was not affected, but strengthened a little. My K20D is eleven years old, and the only issue I have with it at night is the appearance of "hot pixels" at high ISO. They only appear in dark or black areas, and you have to zoom in to see them.

Description: Venders set up portable, charcoal BBQs along the road, to make a little extra money selling "meat on a stick". Passersby frequently stop and make a purchase. They choose their meat, which is generally pork, chicken, or hotdogs. The customer pays then waits for his dinner.

you just upload your photo to server of your choice, preferably max 1200x800pixels for horizontals, then click "insert image" button, a box will appear, paste the link and that's it!

I got the pixel count within limits, but couldn't find it after I uploaded.....about 3 or 4 tries.
That's how I did it before, but it didn't work this time.
Has the procedure changed?

Just a caveman, I guess.....

could it be just internet connection? mine is not stable at all and sometimes i can't upload or post anything normally.

on the other hand, be sure to copy the photo link over the "http://" in the box.

i hope that will help
