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

Appreciate that! Was using my Sony a7iv. I had these really thick thermal gloves on - I’m from South Florida and it was freezing. I’d recently switched to all-manual shooting and couldn’t quite manipulate the dials (especially ISO). I was ill-prepared overall to be out there and having wet pants after falling through made the rest of those shots even more fun…lots of wind off the lake!
