Photo Experiment

This story happened on: 03/05/2017

Following David Klyne's comment on a story, about the ease of adding photos to the stories section I'll give it a go. Searched my phone for something good to use and found the attached, assuming they load.

Taken to show my mum, who hasn't visited New Zealand, how the stock looks in one of the cheaper supermarket Pak&Save.. Taken about 10.30am, they open 7am to 10pm seven days a week and it usually looks as good as this whenever you visit. Even the onions have their flaky skins removed as they start to come off to ensure they look tempting.

I'm going to post this but I can't upload photos direct from my phone because of the 500kb limit. No facility on my phone a Samsung S5, so not stupidly old, to reduce them as far as I can see, but I'm open to learn  a how to if someone knows. But I don't want to use another platform.

I completely agree that photos enhance a story but for those of us who are not fantastically IT literate, I'm used to using Word and other computer programmes, I need to do as I do in Facebook - very very occasionally but often in  fb private messenger or sending as a text, which is to select the photo, click on share, choose the way I want to share - email, text, messenger etc, add a caption if I want to or just send. Job done! However not on this site so you'll have to visit New Zealand or use your imagination. Sorry. 😉

For info, firefox allows you to click and drag an existing CT photo to a comment, but displays it full size. If you look at the code, the photo has the same source ie 'global assets'.
