Fire in the trees

United States
February 11, 2016 6:31pm CST
I can not class myself as a photographer, but I do love to take pictures of the sky and trees. This is a picture I took of a tree in a neighbor's yard. The sun was going down and shining onto the golden leaves to make them seem as if they were aflame. It is probably one of my favorite pictures. Fall is one of my favorite seasons. The leaves change color and fall to the ground, the air is crisp and thing start to quiet down. It's a beautiful time of year. I took this picture a few years ago.

Sorry your picture didn't come up, I am sure it was beautiful. I have a problem with pictures as well. Have to re-size them even ones from Pixabay

I tried TWICE to upload it but it wouldn't do. Was waiting for someone to respond so that I could try here.

@paigea I've contacted Alex. I hope it will get sorted as it's a really pretty shot.

I am always taking pictures of clouds, trees in the autumn months, sunsets, flowers and such. Of course they pictures are with my cell phone and it limits my ability to capture the shot in its full grandeur.

@ScribbledAdNauseum I have a digital camera that my husband gave me a couple of years ago. Haven't used it for quite a while.

I use my iphone and can do pretty ok shots with it. I use the panoramic option a lot. I do have a normal simple cannon camera though, but hardly use it anymore.

@ElusiveButterfly It is just so much handier to use the cellphone isn't it? Plus we don't often take our regular cameras with us when all we are doing are errands.

@ScribbledAdNauseum ......That is good. I thought maybe it was invisible or I was nuts. It's been a weird few days.

I had to resize it. It's in the comments section.

@celticeagle FUnny how sometimes it amounts to some not being able to see it while others can. I guess it all boils down to the browser being used.

@ScribbledAdNauseum I couldn't see it today, we had such heavy snow falls while it was going down.

Beautiful photo! I've had a time where I uploaded a picture it was too large and after attempting several times, the option to upload was gone. Glad I found the photo in the comments below.

I *think* I took that picture with my canon camera and I always have to resize those.

It was sunshine picture, but you didn't uploaded it (you are not able to upload it) I fought real fire on real tree. Once some people were burning garbage, they lit fire to garbage just next to a tree, I ran their and extinguished the fire, but I don't have any photo of the incident.

@ScribbledAdNauseum Yes it was, but I was able to do that as fire was started few minutes ago and was not too strong, but if I waited for two more minutes, it might be too late.

Yikes that was scary I bet! I'm glad you were able to extinguish it though.

If the picture won't upload, have you tried resizing it using MS Paint? I've had to do that with some of my photos as the original size was too large to be accepted by the site. I resized it to 50% and it worked.

I took the picture with my canon camera and I always had to resize them afterwards. I guess I should've just resized the picture in the camera itself at the time.

I have more in that album that I may resize and share at a later date. The leaves here are quite beautiful when they change.

YEs at first you think the tree is on fire. I love when the leaves get that shade of gold.

Perhaps your picture is the wrong size?

I thought it would have told me that it was. I've contacted Alex though and hoping it will get all sorted soon.

I saw a sunset that was bright red orange and there was a cloud of smoke from the fields being burnt it was so pretty I wish I had taken a picture.

12 Feb 16
That would have been magnificent to see! No camera available at the time?

Is the file to big for you to upload. That used to happen to me on Bubblews. I got really good at resizing the photos I planned to use.
• United States
12 Feb 16
I thought mylot used to tell you if the file was too big but it doesn't say anything about it. I have messaged GoAsk just to be sure though.
