 * I apologise if this is the wrong place to ask this question. I have a site that
   has various images which act responsively on all devices except in one case. 
   If you look at the site on tablets in a landscape view the parallax images become
   full size and do not act in a responsive way. I’ve look at the css and for the
   life on me I can’t work out why this happens, it’s ok on mobiles but not landscape
   tablets, any help would be very much appreciated.

 * That is not parallax, that is fixed position. Mobile devices don’t do fixed position
   the same way that desktops do, because they have a viewport and not a window.
   So the CSS probably handles that according to width, but a tablet in landscape
   mode is the same width as a dsektop window.
    Perhaps the media queries need to
   look at `orientation` in addition to width. [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/@media](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/@media)
