Me too, was a nice Colt Gold Cup, now its just a small circle with a line through it, looks kinda like the symbol for the London Underground. Must be Russian hackers or liberal morons at Google.

I'll leave it as is for a little while to see if more folks can or cannot see the image or if it reappears for some. If it continues to be an issue I'll just go on over to photobucket and start something up over there. Or I could do that anyway and put the same image up to see if ya'll can see that one.

FYI, I looked at the forum using my iphone and could see the image.

Yup, I see this one too. Still don't see the previous ones though. For what it's worth, my image on page 1 was an older one from photobucket as well.

Same here. Can see Photobucket clear as day, Google image not available. Being conspiracy theory minded, I suspect you are being censored by the libtards at Google.

Photobucket: 1
Google Image: 0

I originally figured the issue with the google image one was because of the filter/proxy settings for work. But looks like I'm not the only one having issues.

I spent a little time this morning trying a few different lighting possibilities and discovered a few things.

1. The flood lights I was going to try and create some bright diffuse light with are really yellow. Wow those daylight led lights have really spoiled me.
2. Apparently the thread count on my sheets are great for sleeping, but not so good for diffusing light for photography purposes.
3. IMHO, I'm a crummy photographer.

However, ya'll be the judges. Here is what I think is my best photo of the GC taken today.

Looks good to me, if we were all trying to be expert photographers, this would be an entirely different forum. JMHO
