Another Sunset Sunday. Do you have a beautiful sunset to share? We'd love to see it. Just post a link in your comment, or just tell us it's there and we'll click on your name to find it.
I am scheduling this post to come out while I'm out of town. I may not have Internet access for a few days so may not get to read your comments or see your posts. But I'll be back and play catch up then. Enjoy.
HOW TO PUT A LINK TO YOUR POST IN YOUR COMMENT
In case you don't know how to post a link in your comment here is a "how to":
Let's say I wanted to say something like: "My sunset photo is here." As you can see the word "here" looks a little different because it is a link to a sunset post. To do that in my comment I replace the word "here" with the following code:
<a href="http://www.scottlawphotography.com/2010/08/sunset-sunday-27.html"> here. </a>
So this is what you would type into the comments box: My sunset photo is<a href="http://www.scottlawphotography.com/2010/08/sunset-sunday-27.html"> here. </a>. But what everyone would see when they read your comment is "My sunset photo is here." Without the quotation marks.
Two very important points:
1. It does not matter what you type before the code. If you wanted to say "To see the most beautiful photo ever taken" or whatever you wanted to say. It just doesn't matter. Whatever you type before the code will show exactly as you type it. You don't have to type anything at all. If you want the entire sentence to be the link to your post then do it this way: <a href="http://www.scottlawphotography.com/2010/08/sunset-sunday-27.html"> My sunset photo is here. </a>. It would then look like this My sunset photo is here.
2. The part between the quotation marks inside the code is the exact URL or web address that will open up when the reader clicks on the link. If you use the one in the example it will go to My Sunset Sunday Post not yours. Note that you must include the entire thing, including the "http://". The best way to get it is to open your post and then copy the URL from the address box at the top of your web browser. So if I were Chad and I wanted you to come to my Sunset Sunday photo I might type something like this: You can see my <a href="http://chadbarton.blogspot.com/2010/08/evening-rays.html"> Sunset Sunday photo here. </a>. Then when you or I read his comment it will look like "You can see my Sunset Sunday photo here." Without the quotation marks. And when you click on the "Sunset Sunday photo here" it will take you to Chad's post.
One last point - I don't think you can just copy the code from here and then change the link and verbage inside because I've used special characters that you can't see to show you what to type without it actually working as HTML code in the example. You'll have to type everything but the web address yourself the first time (you can go ahead and copy and paste the web address in where it belongs) and then you can copy and paste the whole code to your hearts content.
Questions??? Email me or ask them in your comment.
Don't be shy - leave a comment or email me. I look forward to hearing from you!

love that skyline,
Is this the view from your house??? My favorite sunrise from our recent trip to Lake Powell is HERE
another one of your masterpiece!
What a gorgeous yellow Scott - did you use a different white balance to get that color? Absolutely love it!
An urban sunset? I like the silhouettes. And at last I have a sunset post here!
A soft warm glow arises
As it kisses the dawn
Beautifully captured
Well done
My Sunset is here. Taken at the lake a few weeks ago.. here.
Scott your Sunset is breathtaking.
Its taking me a few trys to get the code right and hope this one works.
Have a nice day.
Hi Scott! This sunset is really magnificent. Your sunset shots always impress me! :o)
Here is my contribution to Sunset Sunday. Enjoy!
Beautiful colour in this one Scott, and lovely composition with the silhouettes.
Here's my contribution.
Hello Scott, I am new following here. Love your photograpy and all the wonderful hints you give. No two sunsets are alike each casts it's glow differently on each person each time. Never tire of a beautiful sunset shared or seen..
Nice shot of the house. Always love a good sunset which I fear there are few remaining for this summer.
Oh, and that is a great "how to". Many people can use it or need to know how. I have been doing just this for years but never thought to write the how to. The only thing I would add is that you can save the link text in a text file or like I do, in google docs. I have a few versions I just cut & paste. (Same for meme links.)
Please visit my blog.
Stunning photo Scott, as I sit here and listen to Elton John's song "Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me". I'll try to post my link here, this doesn't seem right and most likely isn't... maybe I should read your entire blog! lol I'm too tired and want to get things happening here so tomorrow I'll read it. :-)
beautiful execution!
Wow, what a brilliant picture!
You will have to share with us where you took the shot. Pretty sunset. Hurry home.
Another nice sunset! I feel warm all over! :)
awsome :)
lovely sunset... amazing sky... looks magical.
Beautiful sunset, I like the silhouettes too :)
Hi, Brother Law!
I was reading your instructions, and thought I'd try linking your page to my "tester" (on my page) and it didn't do the "here" thing?
how do you get the thing in the front and the back of the weblink (from the address bar)? I think I messed up, it just came out as the weblink which I'm just sounding massive confused right now probably because it's past midnight and I'm massively confused.
Hmmm... Connie tried to explain this to me a few months ago, but that email is probably buried so deep, I don't dare ask!
Thank you for any pointers you can give me,
Karilyn Taylor (aka "Tamra's 1st Sister" - *grin*)
You take breathtakingly beautiful photos, by the way.
Now I know! I have long wondered how to put links in a comment box. Thank you.
I never tire of sunset photos.... here on bread on the water is one of mine
Thanks for your artistic and technical sharing.
So happy to find some sunrise/sunset-loving people. Here is one of my favorites.
