there are so many great pictures. I wish i knew where they were all taken.

I'm with you Mark.  If anyone wants to edit their post to give us course/hole info, I'd appreciate it.

Sven,

I'm pretty sure I make the same comment every time we have one of these threads, as I've no idea where half of them are either, but as no one listens I've given up 

 

Cheers,

James

I'll disqualify myself by posting more than one Shinnecock photo, but I can't pick one

[Kalen Braley]

These aren't mine...but they are awesome!!!

[Mark Saltzman]

Is this right of 7 from 3 fairway?

[Bill Brightly]

Mark,

To be honest with you, I can't recall! I played SH for my first and only time a month ago on a beautiful, (2 club) windy day. The round went by in a blur of stunning beauty and demanding golf shots. When I finally went through my pics, I could not remember this shot. Maybe some lucky sob knows the course well enough to identify.

I'll choose this one for you.

Title: "Self-portrait (Shinnecock Hills)"

[Bill Brightly]

That would be my choice except for the shadow...

The shadow doesn't ruin it for me.

But if you don't want it there ... crop it!

That's what the pros do.

The final day of a trip 25 years in the planning.  The ninth tee at Olympic.  Straight down the middle.

Note to self... need strokes from Will Peterson if ever paired with

My favorite photo I have taken at Northland. I was a warm morning and as the warm air meet Lake Superior it caused the fog to roll in like lava.

Tony,

If you click on that second link, and then maximize the photo by clicking on it...it gives you an option to select a picture size in the top right corner. When you click on that, it now shows up jpeg with a normal link.  From there you just grab the link by right clicking on the photo and then you can post it up like I did! 

[Greg Clark]

Here's mine.

[Joe_Tucholski]

I figured there are enough photos of the Bandon courses so I'm going with Wolf Creek - view of #5.  It's tough to keep a level horizon out there with a bit of sensory overload.

[Sam Morrow]

Here's mine.

What course is that Greg?

[Greg Clark]

Sam,

Old American Golf Club - 14th hole.

Tony,

Left click on the picture to enlarge it.

Left click on the show all sizes button in the top right corner.

Right click anywhere on the picture.

Left click on the "Copy Image Location" option.

Then in GCA.com while you're creating the post enter {img width=800} then paste the image location link (CTRL v) and then enter {/img}  However, you need to use the [ and ] brackets instead of the { and } brackets.  I can't use them to explain it because it gets messed up tring to figure out what picture I was trying to put in this instruction.  Don't leave any spaces between the ] and [ .  The width=800 forces the width of the picture to the width of the gca.com screen so no scrolling is required in viewing it.  You can change the 800 to whatever you want to make the picture wider or narrower.  You can use the "insert image" button to save yourself the trouble of typing the {img}  and {/img}.  You still have to add width=800 with a space after img.  This is the picture before.  It looks familiar.  Hope that helps.  BTW Photobucket seems easier than Flickr to get the link address.

Sam,

Old American Golf Club - 14th hole.

That is what I thought! Such a cool course but I'm not sure if the everyday golfer is going to understand it.
