Spray N' Surf

The great thing about photography as an art /creative expression is that you can revisit files/negatives and create numerous interpratations/edits. I am finding now that all the files that I saved in the 'archives' can be revisited and looked upon not just with a fresh eye but with more enhanced knowledge and skills (...perhaps ;)) a year or two or more later.

The downside of this is STORAGE ....jeez , and then external hard drives, and clouds and google drives, and back ups and you enter in to 'what if' territory. What if I delete that file and it is the greatest shot of ALL time !! ...in 2 years time when I go to re-edit it ;))....what if there is an electricity black out /hacking by russians/wikipeida/dark net and all my what if files are wiped out. We are all creating so many files and we will look back in 10 /15 years and laugh at how we used to work on computers with 500gb or 1tb or data and how on earth did we cope.

I've rambled on for too long my fine flickr friends and wish that I could find a spray that I could spray extra storage whenever I needed it. This shot from last winter - love the big surf and light at sunrise that creates the magical light.
