      Taken this summer during a lightning storm on the Whiterim trail. Lucky shot with my Nikon Coolpix.

      My wife just got a D300, so I'm looking forward to becoming "something of a photog, myself."

        That is a terrific shot, hostile.

            Wow, that really is a fantastic lucky shot. People invent some pretty sophisticated equipment to capture images like that, so to just catch it by chance is really cool.

              I look forward to your contributions.

                  I was up late last night catching up on my blog and discovered that at some point between Christmas and yesterday, all of the pictures taken on Christmas morning had been deleted. I wasn't sure if I had offloaded the pictures and deleted them accidentally on my desktop, or if I had just inadvertently deleted them from off the camera's CF card. Either way, I felt sick inside realizing I had lost all of those captured memories.

                  On the desktop side I'm running Linux. I looked in the repositories and found this handy little command line utility called foremost, originally developed by the US Air Force's Office of Special Investigations. I ran it on my dedicated userland disk and it pulled up some 52,000+ jpg files off the drive that had been previously deleted (the majority of which were sourced from the my Firefox cache). It was quite a haystack. I poured over it but I didn't find anything that resembled our recent Christmas pictures. I probably accidentally nuked the pictures off the CF card before they were transferred to my desktop.

                  After my hard drive search was complete, I put the CF card into a cradle and popped in into my work-issued laptop running Microsoft's Windows XP. I downloaded DiskDigger and ran it on the camera card. It found instances of about 200 deleted images on the card... and about 28 that I took on Christmas. The interface was easy to use, lightweight, and fairly friendly. I "un-deleted" the 28 images and saved them to my laptop's hard drive. Of those 28, only 8 were fully intact. The other 20 had corrupt header information or were incomplete. I was still relieved. 8 is better than nothing! Anyway, I highly recommend this little DiskDigger program to recover lost images... it's free, but the author does have a paypal tip jar for donations. I'm going to toss in a couple of bits.

                  Hope this is helpful for someone.

                  cheers.
                  Sorry to hear about that. I have used similar software a couple of times to recover deleted photos from SD cards. Sometimes I get 90+% and something I get much less.

                            There are some seriously cool pix on this thread. Many of you are very talented and have a good eye for this stuff.

                              Okay, hope this is not too hokey.

                              Birdsong


                              Just as the birds in this image are elevating above the junkyard heap, so too does music lift us above the mundane nature of everyday life. The theme is repeated pictorially, as the birds against the power lines resemble musical notes on a staff. (I should have waited a tad longer until the birds were higher against the wires, but I didn't time it right.)

                                Experimenting with washing out the background by flooding it with sunlight by shooting straight into the sun. Altho my aperture is at 5.6, so it would have washed out anyway.
