Waiting for the pandemic to end - and a free way back to the Faroe Islands - I found some memories on my harddrive. View to Kalsoy from the road to Elduvik.
#windowwednesday
Another spontaneous upload of an old(er) picture, one that, hadn't I picked it for Window Wednesday today, would have probably gone back to another months- or even year-long slumber on my harddrive. So up it goes, before I get second thoughts about it (which happens all too often with too many images).
A color key / selective colour experiment which I don't do all too often; in fact, regarding uploads to Flickr, I think it's a first, but I have a few other images in the making with that processing technique. There's so much going on here with the light and the shadows – which add so many extra patterns to what is in that place anyway – that I thought it might help to structure the image if I left the red chairs red, those on the folding-screen included, because I thought that that's an extra layer of real vs. painted in combination with the layer of black and white vs. colour. I'm not sure if it really works as an image, but I'm showing it to you anyways, because otherwise... (see the first sentence of my description).
I had started to process it with selective colour months ago, so that idea wasn't one I got today, but the inclusion of the drawn chairs on the folding-screen was a new idea I got just today (and not all chairs there had been red, so I had to actually paint a few of them to make my idea work properly) when I re-processed the image in DXO PhotoLab, Lightroom and PS. Photo taken back in 2018 with the fabulous LX100 at the Königliche Gartenakademie (a beautiful garden centre nearby the Botanical Garden). This is one of the repurposed greenhouses, and greenhouses practically consist of nothing but windows, so I thought it would be perfect for Window Wednesday.
HWW, and Happy Hump Day, Everyone :)
These Winter Robins are such an easy subject in winter its starting to clog up my harddrive :-) Happy Weekend to All.

Yes, my friends, it\'s been quite some time since I took those pictures. Now that was a bitter cold day, I remember all too well. Fingers almost so frozen that I could hardly press the button ;-).
Knew the pictures from then were on my harddrive. But can you imagine, last year was so exhausting I often couldn\'t even bother to look at what I had in the archives. And editing and posting was way beyond me.
Well, thanks to some friends around here, I think that I should start taking an interest again ;-).
BTW, did I already say "Thank you", JuliSonne ? Picked that photos from "your home" on purpose for my Neustart.
I reckon this shot is a bit too late for the movie - Transformer. I didn't even realise this shot is in my archives... that's what happen when one has too much crap in his harddrive :P Anyway, its still better late than never! Sorry its a post & run this morning as its way past midnight here & I'm going to transform myself into a sleeping log now. Should see you shortly soon! ciao!

Another picture from the series of rocky mossy foresty path. The summer begins to spread its flatness, it will be a challenge to get some nice photos now. But it will never stops me from going places, my harddrive is full of flat pictures anyway :) Do I delete them? Never!
I created this crazy image for Crazy Tuesday's theme "Symmetry", but then missed the posting deadline. Many days, I have no idea what day it is. Oh well, here it is anyway. Posted to Sliders Sunday.
Photo of parts from a vintage hard drive I took apart a few months ago. Photo taken on Feb. 25, 2023.
Today i thought about the Krimml waterfalls in austria which i visited 7 years ago. The image rested since that time at my harddrive. Today i had the lust to process it ! :-) The Krimml waterfall is europe greatest waterfall. This is only the bottom part.
Actually fresh from the harddrive. Spent most of the day and night by this lovely location. And the best of all is that no one will probably never find this place.
Hard work to get back in the rythm to process photos after some years without doing anything but taking photos.
So I hope you can forgive for not giving super crisp quality straight away :)

A photo from the first day of the year, I was revisiting this folder on my harddrive and realized I hadn't processed this shot.
I don't know how I missed it earlier. The wing span alone should have drawn me in, but I guess I was distracted that day!
Oh well, it's a joy to stumble upon today!
Hope everyone has had a good Sunday.

Finally---Hey it took me three days to find this on my harddrive.. Can you find it?.... lol.. Find the Bunny Dec 2008e IMG_5593
134/365 I barely squeezed a photo out today. Luckily it is random things thursday so I walked around the office looking for something to shoot. Not my favorite edit..but I'm still stuck on my laptop. I ordered a new harddrive yesterday which is the same as my messed up one. I'm hoping a little PCB swap will fix the old one and I'll be up and running tomorrow. I really apprciate all the comments I've been getting lately...you all rock (like a hurricane). Happy random thing thursday!
Each star screw on this hard drive is approximately 4mm in diameter.
Many thanks for all views, fav's - and particularly comments - all are greatly appreciated!
Happy Macro Mondays to you all!
No group invites/awards in comments please.
I loved the mood of this one. It's me all over.
Back with uploads. The battery of my external harddrive went poof so I couldn't access my newer photos. But I have a new battery now :)
Made #21 in explore.
I really need to find the negatives from when I was an undergrad and used film. I didn't take pictures then except for while traveling, but I always enjoyed trying to capture where I had been. This was taken in Rocky Mountain National Park in 2004 -- unfortunately its a scan of the 4x6 photo (not even the negative). I really should try to find the originals when I go back East for the holidays. (Running out of space on my main harddrive, so I've been going back through my archives to free up some room -- hence why I stumbled onto an image from 2004)
found sleeping peacefully on a sidewalk in bangkok last night. amid noise and pollution. happy new year to them and to you. disregard the tag, the dog is on the left.
i am posting from a cybercafe, found it easy enough to use my harddrive and pick an image.

A failed 1TB hard drive from my iMac. I knew I'd eventually photograph it. Lit with a AA-powered incandescent Maglite flashlight. This is a vertical segment about 3.5 centimeters tall.
Canon 6D Mark II and Canon 100mm f2.8L macro IS USM lens. ISO 800, f10 at 2 seconds, 8000° Kelvin to keep the board green (instead of going blue, like it was trying to do).
What a nightmare... I tried my best to fix it... but I got a little frustrated.. I think it's beyond repair.
Now where did I put the backup?
harddrive or puter or something bit the big one and I am in use a borrowed laptop. Man I have posted a pic a day for over a year then I missed a few days becuase I lost all my pics. Most are backed up but man it's a pain. Still limping!!! Pinkalicious rhodo April 18 2010 playfair park walk IMG_6213

After what has been a real PITA week with my external harddrive failing and having to recover my photos it is nice to get back to some sort of normaility
I think last Sunday evening was probably a little bit different to what this weekend is going to be like
It was the cloud formation that initially drew me to take some pictures of a location that we have visited many times before
Taken from Foel Ferry with Olympus OM-D E-M1 mkii and Olympus 14-150mm f/4-5.6 M.Zuiko Digital ED Lens
I gotta be honest here, I lost track of when I build this, I found the image on an old harddrive. Or on my camera, who knows.

I've seen some things from my office window in Bray Recycling Centre, but today was a perfect angle for a photo. I hope this guy doesn't work for Anglo Irish Bank...
Thanks to all the kind comments. Sorry I've been so busy. I'll be sure to catch up now.
I recently bought a new computer, and now I'm able to browse my entire catalogue of photos from my harddrive, making it easier for me to go back to older shots. This is one such example of an older shot! Taken inside the UKK building in Uppsala.
This news blurb was and is just an example of how ingrained racism was/is in America JUST A FEW YEARS AGO. I hope our 2011 society isn't drifting back to the old days.

These scans come from my rather large magazine collection. Instead of filling my house with old moldy magazines, I scanned them (in most cases, photographed them) and filled a storage area with moldy magazines. Now they reside on an external harddrive. I thought others might appreciate these tidbits of forgotten history.
Please feel free to leave any comments or thoughts or impressions... Thanks in advance!
Diggin' through my harddrive I found this one. I shot this multirow panorama with the Canon 5D MKII and 200 1.8L in fall 2012. Lost EXIF's so I do not even know how much frames it was.
Sometimes photos get stuck on the harddrive due to lack of a proper ID. This one is one of those, but when I finally made an effort to figure out what it was - I got immediate help and learned it was a species named for its larvae - say hello to the western grape rootworm (Bromius obscurus).
There are at least three distinct colour forms of this one with elytra and tibia in brown plus this one which is the typical one in all black.
This is a two-exposure fous stack for a little added depth of field.

How could I have had this beauty lying around undiscovered on my harddrive for 8 years?!
If I remember correctly, this was a rainy overcast day but there were moments where the sun came out. But the light was strongly filtered by the rain clouds.

i'm getting there. i moved all my photos from this year so far onto my external harddrive so that i have more room on my laptop.
This is actually from 2005. When I found it on my harddrive a couple of days ago, I was cracking up. I still remember the day I was working on a photo on which I didn't like the look of me on a dinosaur PSP in the hopes of improving it, lol. Thought I'd share it with you to make you smile.
So, I finally mustered up the guts and courage to put this 15 shot pano together... And thankfully, there was no smoke or burning smell emitting from my harddrive.. Phew...
As usual, due to the size of this image, I tried to get the adjustments correct in LR for each individual shot before starting up PS, where this is stitched...
Totally forgot to remove the CPL while shooting this, thereby causing unsightly banding in the sky. Had to dodge and burn quite a fair bit, but artifacts are still pretty visible...
So here we go.. Glacier Point, with a view of the entire Yosemite Valley.. Gotta love this place! Might not look like much at this size, so please view it SUPER LARGE!
Have a good start to the weekend folks!!!

Female broad-billed hummingbird in the yard in Tucson. I'm currently in Michigan with snow and 20 F 😏
I still have all of the photos that I took on our final visit to Tucson. They are backed up onto an external harddrive and I haven't been able to delete them from my computer.
