Fall Pictures, No Link

[Joel Merrill]

It seems like Shutterfly doesn't work very well anymore. I'm open to suggestions for a new place to share my pictures on line. I don't care about bells and whistles. I just want something that is easy for me and my viewers to use. I also need to be able to order good quality prints in a reasonable time for a reasonable price.

Anyhow here are some of the best pictures from that link I posted a day or two ago.

I haven't tried attaching more than one picture to a post yet. I assume that the total size has to be under 200K. So I all of these will be to big to post 2 at a time. I hate to reduce them too much because it reduces the picture quality.

This is the campus of Central College here in Pella.

The trees are pretty this year. The last few years we have had rain or wind when the trees were turning and they didn't last long.

[Joel Merrill]

One year we had an early snow while the leaves were still on the trees. It was a wet heavy snow and broke down or badly damaged most of the trees in town. I lost my two biggest trees then.

[Joel Merrill]

It rained all day yesterday so I think I took these pictures just in time.

We had a hot summer but it has been a nice Fall

I wish I had more time to walk around town. Some of the older parts of town have beautiful old houses with huge trees.

[Joel Merrill]

These were all taken in Pella Iowa where I live.

[Joel Merrill]

This next few were taken in a large wooded park on the edge of town.

[Joel Merrill]

I don't know what kind of berries these are. They were all over. There were a lot of birds out there but nothing was eating these. They are probably poison but they look nice.

[Joel Merrill]

There are some very old burr oak trees in this park. I didn't take any pictures of the really big ones. I love old trees.

[Joel Merrill]

This is my wife, Pat. She likes bird watching. This park is a good place for that.

[Joel Merrill]

This is a red breasted woodpecker or something like that. Pat could tell you.

Other wildlife:basic05

No, I didn't kill it. I kill them if the are in my yard but I let them be if they are out in the wild where they belong.

[Joel Merrill]

I almost forgot this one. This is the front office entrance to the company I work for.

Joel,

You can post four or five pictures in one post. Each individual picture can be up to 195K in size. That is the limit per picture, not the limit per post.

Enjoyed your pictures! They're beautiful!

Hey Joel,

I use www.kodakgallery.com. It's pretty good and really easy to share photographs with friends & family. You can give people access to an entire album or just specific photographs. You can even order copies or enlargements of your photographs if you cant print them off your computer yourself. Your friends/family can do the same too. We cant print ours off because we dont have a decent printer yet so I love using kodak.

Joel. those are so beautiful! It seems when you get under a few of these trees, there is an orangish/redish glow all around you!
