The Coolest Photographers in the World!!

I got my computer back from the fix-it guys yesterday and restored over a thousand photos from the iPhotos backups on my external drive. Oh bliss. I have now got a replacement copy of Lightroom 5.7.1 and am now adding in over 4,000 RAW photos.
This was taken last September, processed then and stored on my external drive.

A good hour or so waiting for the sunrise before work. Happy to be rewarded with a bit of colour just as the sun came over the horizon. And the debris and foam flowing in the incoming tide on the Mersey looked good with a long exposure.
I thought i'd lost this photo after having PC problems last Friday! Fours hours spent trying to troubleshoot a "BSOD"(Bad System Config Info) because my PC wouldn't boot up. I tried everything but no luck so i got an expert to look at it, turned out to be a faulty hard drive. Happy ending though, all my files were recovered and now i had a super quick 2TB SSD 👍 Just need to reinstall everything now.
You get two of almost everything, 2 eyes, 2 hands, 2 legs but only one of the most important things...one brain, one heart. Seems like there should be a backup if hearts can break and minds can get lost.

If you believe fully in yourself you won't even think about having a backup plan If you really know in your heart that you are doing the right thing, there will be no doubt. If there is doubt, then either it is the wrong path or you are not ready. Your fear is what makes you doubt yourself, and it is this fear that you must overcome first. This fear makes you look for security. The need of a safety net says that you don't believe that you can make it. That creates a self-fulfilling prophecy. If there's no question in your mind then you will proceed as though you've already made it.

The wolf on the right is Wapiti Lake pack female 1276; she's a mature wolf that knows the safest way to approach large prey like a bison - even a debilitated one like this bull - is from the rear. The two nearly-black wolves on the left are juveniles, born in the spring of 2023. Their focus is on the front end, which is not so wise, given that that is the "horns end" of the bison. The goal of all three wolves was to further wear down the bison's reserves. It was already weakened by something not apparent to us observers, but in bad enough shape that it could not fend off the wolves surrounding it. Various members of the pack continued to threaten the hapless bison by poking it, showing teeth, allowing it no rest, and in nipping at it, sometimes tearing away small pieces of flesh.
So why didn’t they just kill the bison as soon as they recognized it was an easy target? One possibility is that they had eaten recently, reducing the urgency to eat again. Hunting even compromised large hoofed and horned prey is energy-expensive and very risky: one well-placed kick or a stab with a heavy, thick horn, can be deadly. But progressively depleting prey by not allowing it to rest, eat, drink, or let down its guard for a second, threatening it for hours upon hours, biting off bits of its flesh, and de-energizing it to the point where it could no longer defend itself, was good work for juvenile pack members. In fact the young wolves we first saw in the road, with their headlight-bright yellow eyes and the typical long, spiky hackles of juveniles, did a lot of that work under the supervision of experienced adults. It was a great training session for the pups and an opportunity for at least some of the senior wolves to relax while dinner was being prepped for them.
All photographs in this series were taken with a long focal length lens at a distance sufficient to avoid disrupting the wolves’ behavior. Additionally, many of the images are cropped, which also makes it look like I was closer than I actually was. Although I selected many images in which the wolves appear to be looking at me, in fact most of them were looking at other wolves or at their prey and not at the human presence, which at times was substantial.
Never approach wildlife. Yellowstone National Park regulations require a minimum of 100 yards from bears and wolves, and 25 yards be maintained from all other wildlife. Even if you’re farther than that, you know you’re too close if your presence causes animals or birds to change their behavior.
We really dodged a bullet with our recent winter storm. They had predicted an ice storm with up to a half an inch of ice. But we ended up getting mostly sleet and a couple of inches of snow. The last time we had ice at a half inch, our power was out for almost four days....and we spent the first three in our bitterly cold house, desperately wishing we had a backup option. Every space heater in the area had been snapped up by the time we could get to the store, but on day four we managed to find this kerosene heater. And wouldn't you know, about four hours after we set it up and finally got warm....the power came back on.
At any rate, we didn't take any chances this time, and had our heater set up and ready for action before the event. I'm pleased to say we didn't need it, but as there is another storm on the horizon for the end of the week....this thing is staying right where it is for now. 😊
One of Nyíregyháza's, and pretty much north-eastern Hungary's only two Ikarus 415s, EWS-831 leaving Halmosbokor hamlet behind in the last rays of the early-winter sun.
These two units (the other being EWS-834) are only used as backups now, so it's not that easy to bump into them. During the summer both of them were replacing some Volvos and Credos under maintenance for a solid week or so, but unfortunately we just missed them with Michał (we had more luck with 200 series in the area).
This picture would've been possible without the help of Tamás, I hope that he will also reveal some hits from this rather pleasant day very soon! :)
Sorry, I didn’t get out this morning. It’s a good thing I keep backups.

Hopefully all my uploads from here on out will be new content. This was taken last summer at the Italian Gathering in Columbus, Ohio.
Commander Krik is forced to have backup on his mission. There is a possibility that clone commander Spark might be held captive, which would lead Krik into a trap. Because of the dense foliage speeders and turbo tanks wouldn't be able to make it. The danger is high. No time for errors...

I was originally going to take this picture inside my Chancellor's Office MOC, but realized that there wasn't enough space for it.

Class 52s Nos. D1010 Western Campaigner and D1048 Western Lady move off Bath Road depot, Bristol, in readyness to follow the "Western Tribute" railtour on its way from Swansea to Plymouth. These locomotives were standing by in case either D1013 or D1023 were to fail whilst hauling the special train on Saturday 26th February 1977.
See this shot in David Hayes's photostream showing the same locomotives, but a little earlier:

I'm nowhere near as diligent as I should be when it comes to backing up my digital photo files.
I'm not all that trusting of technology, but it seems to me I've had pretty good luck over the years.
About a year ago my main external drive started acting wonky. Folders taking forever to open. The files appearing even slower.
Right away I started copying over to a similar drive that hadn't seen as much use.
The entire ordeal was quite slow and painful.
The good thing is, I rescued everything before the other drive died.
So now I'm creating a recovery system that's easy enough for me to maintain from here on out.
I save everything. Card dumps as far back as 2005. Every photo I've processed and posted to all the various blogs and social media platforms over the years. Flickr included.
That's a lot ot stuff!
How conscientious are you about back-ups? Do you copy files manually? Are your back-ups automated? How often do you tackle them?
