Thanks - I think I’m doing something wrong as I’m selecting ‘attach files’ bottom left - if I touch the insert image icon above I can’t add text with the image!

If you click the insert image icon above then after image has loaded you can then scroll up and click just above the image and the cursor will appear, or just below the image also. I usually write text out first then click on insert image icon which adds images below text. Also if you go onto one of your posts and click on edit, then click on one of the little images at the bottom it will give you the option to delete image or insert, if insert then it will give you the option to insert as thumbnail or full image

Beautiful, really need to be uploaded as full images and not thumbnails though, you can choose that option when you upload, or you can edit your posts then click on the thumbnail and it will give the option to load full image.

I should really find some of my mountain photos out, hills really in comparison to some of those shots, but if you spend enough time in them you do get some great images

Man would love to see your pictures. And yes with time in them you manage to get some immersive shots. I’ve visited most of the main mountain ranges - the Hindu Kush, Karakoram, Himalayan and Andes. Admittedly I didn’t go to the main Karakoram range around the Baltoro glacier and K2 or snow lake - but around Rakaposhi range of the Karakoram - still huge! And the western Himalaya where the 3 mountain ranges meet and where you’ll find Nanga Parbat. My favourite mountain is Tirich Mir and the Hindu Kush - lower than the others but more beautiful I think.
