It Was This Big

Yesterday at my garage sale bike ride I found this great ceramic figure. I was told that it was a holder for a retainer. the big open mouth just looked funny. I was saving it to blow up when I realized last night that it would make a fun back ground for a projectile shot.

 

This shot took way longer than I expected and one of the reasons was kind of scary. I set-up the shot, taking a dozen trial shots to get the position and lighting how I wanted it and then did the real shot. The image on the backscreen looked great so I pulled the card and took it inside to the computer. To my shock, every picture that I had taken and reviewed was gone.

 

The last stored shot was from last night.

 

I've been using digital cameras for ten years and never had anything like that happen. I went back to the garage and took a few test shots and everything was there.

 

But ten or so pictures are gone like they never existed. If anyone has any idea what to suspect or do, please let me know.

 

I'm lucky that these types of pictures are (mostly) possible to re-create. But others are not. I'm just not sure how pictures that you took and reviewed on a camera could just go away.

 

Hot again today. I decided to not go to the Point Mugu Airshow because I'm just not interested in standing around in the sun and snapping airplanes. The heat is predicted to continue through next weekend. This is the muggiest mess of a late summer/fall that I've even been in since I lived in Camarillo. It's leading me into a really grumpy mood.

 

Cheers.
