The only survivor...

Posted by
Margie (Auckland, New Zealand) on 16 February 2009 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio.

I was out early Sunday morning - the light was nice after days of humid gloom - and I took quite a few shots in a park near my home. There were some quite cool shots (I thought) but something went wrong in the upload to the computer. I inadvertently deleted everything but this one. Frustration reigns supreme!

NIKON D80 1/125 second F/5.6 ISO 100 27 mm (35mm equiv.)

Ooh, too sorry! There are tools for getting your images back if you didn't format your memory card so far.

@MadScientist: Hey thanks for the thought MS, but yeah, it's formatted (I think?!)
Never mind I will just have to go out early again another day!

The strong lighting from the side gives added dramatic impact to this nice shot in the park. I can share your frustration at the loss of images. I'm glad you were able to post this one...it's a beauty!
