Fall brilliance

The sun briefly came out on a very dark day and lit up this tree on our block.

NOTE: I’m still having problems commenting on pictures, with some “Error 500” message making it impossible at times. Earlier this morning I was able to leave a couple of comments, then suddenly I couldn’t, and ones that I had left before simply disappeared.

I’ve complained to Pbase three times now, but they haven’t fixed the problem, or for that matter, even responded. I’m about ready to give up on this place, quite frankly.

‘Sacrifice’ in (very) brilliant detail, posted earlier:

Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max
1/350s f/1.8 at 6.8mm iso64 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Facebook and Instagram are much easier to use. I wish we had a like button too.
Anyways, this photo is gorgeous. Love the colors and glow. V

Lovely image! I hope your comment problem is resolved soon. I would hate it if you left PBase! V.

I copy and pasted the error problem to ChatGPT and they did give an explanation for it but what they also said was that it appears that no one is running pbase, it just seems to be goin on its own with no one at the helm.
Beautiful lighting and tree. V

You’re not alone with pbase problems from the comments. I do hope it gets fixed for you. I don’t want you to leave. This lovely photo is a reason why.

The dark sky and the brief sunlight made this image so extraordinary. What a catch ! ~VVVVV++++~

Glorious autumn colour, so well photographed! V

I have also been having the Error 500 problem for some days, and also wrote to PBase with no response. It is very frustrating. Sometimes I can leave a comment under a photo, sometimes not.

a bold and resonant seasonal banner...how problematic the internet can be these days..

This is gorgeous! What a great display of fall color. ~BV~
PS: Helen- I have been having that same problem with error 500 intermittently and also have colors missing from the page background.

Remember Walter Koenig from a little while back, he sure knew who to get in touch with at PBase! I wonder how he's doing BTW, hope he goes well. That problem I had as well ...
