I've visited Praia da Santa Rita in Portugal many times over the last twenty years - not only for the good food in the restaurant that overlooks this steep, rocky beach but also for the wonderful way the wet sand reflects the setting sun when the tide is low.

Cool pic! I didn't know that pictures on steemit could be clickable like that. I might recommend compressing your image a bit before uploading it though. This one appears to be about 7mb which is very very large for a website and takes a long time to load. When you export from Lightroom you can usually select a target file size in MB. My information might be out of date but last I heard people usually compress to about 100k-300k for website use. Cheers!

Thanks for the tip, I will definitely look at my file size. I normally upload my photos to imgur to share on Reddit which automatically compresses them - I didn't realise that Steemit was using the uncompressed file.

Thanks for your kind words. In the markup editor I drag the photo from my hard drive and it creates a link. Then I edit the link to look like this:
