Description
I just lost my whole "Ready to Place" folder with approximately 150 images in it. It is many, many hours of work - just gone. My son tried to retrieve it with his fancy software but to no avail. My heart literally aches... Very silly, I know, but dang!!!!!!
I had to revert to older images for tonight's upload. This fuschia was captured in my garden at the beginning of spring around October last year. Hope it brings some warmth in the bitter cold up north!
Thanks for popping in and for your valued comments and faves on my upload of Kayla a couple of nights ago!
Stay warm and take care!
Hugs, Carin xx

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss :( I'd go crazy!! Very nice image though! :)
Sorry to hear about the loss. That is a gut-wrenching sick feeling. Thanks for the warm picture!
wonderful flowers! Great photo!!!
too bad for loss of work!! my wife just got me a back up system for this same reason..... I like this capture..
Never rely just on a hard drive as they can go anytime .A real beauty and cheery shot Carin Mick
Awesome flower, Carin! Good composition, love the frame!
Beautiful capture Carin, I am sorry you lost all your work, it is a real bummer, it happened to me when my HD failed last year, I lost some great images, now I back everything up with a paranoid attitude LOL!
I'm also very sorry to hear about your loss! Look at these to dancing queens. Lovely, and i love the complementing frame.
Sorry to hear of such a loss Carin.Excellent capture Carin.
Beautiful flowers, the colors are wonderful. Excellent photo and presentation!
This is really beautiful Carin. Sorry to hear about loseing all those photos, it's one of my biggest fears. I have a lot of new ones I need to back up.
GORGEOUS CAPTURE & COMPOSITION :)
Oh I have lost plenty of things through the years! Sorry about your loss. This is what a CD burner to back-up is for, and also Photobucket.com is a great place to back up favorites. That has saved me lots of times! This is an excellent macro, with a soft focus. I love fuschias so much, and wish I could grow them here.
Great macro! If you did'nt write a lot of data, its possible to get your photographs back. the're programs who can restore deleted files, Ive used http://www.pcinspector.de/default.htm?Language=46 to get some files back a few years ago. Its Dutch, but worthed to try. RS
awesome capture
My biggest fear these days is losing my photo file on my laptop. My deepest sympathies! But, then you brought a stunning floral shot to us and I am glad you had to dig to find it. :-)
so sorry to hear about all those lost hours =( I thought for a week after Christmas I'd lost my hard drive, which is pretty small and could go unnoticed and on which EVERYTHING photographic I've pretty much ever done is stored, not backed up... you can imagine the relief when it turned up eventually.. I guess backing things up is one of those real boring things we should all do but which I somehow never get round to... aaaanyway, nice shot, great colours and light! =)
Great capture of these beauties! Sorry to hear you lost some photos - I hope you had the unedited ones backed up on cd.
We put so much time into prepairing those pictures, I can not imagine how you fill, sorry for the loss. Back up, back up, back up!! This is a wonderful flower, love the strongness of the color.
beautiful!
I love fuschia's but can't seem to grow them. Oh well. Sorry to hear about your "ready to place" folder. I'm not that organised myself as you might be able to tell. Get yourself a 2.5 inch portable hard drive and go to www.2brightsparks.com and get their free syncback software. Thats what I do and the 2.5 goes with me everywhere then gets plugged back in when home.
Gorgeous closeup with wonderful colors!!
Hi Carin...beautiful fuschia...looks absolutely fresh. I'm lucky to have 3 or 4 ahead, how did you manage 150? I know we all have our own ways but I went to Amazon the last time I got a scare, shelled out some dollars and got a 500GB external HD. I plug it into my laptop once a week, start it and walk away. It automatically adds only those changes I've made since the last backup. CDs are painful but inexpensive and for some reason I just don't like sending all my stuff off to some service who knows where. Mighty nice replacement today. Bill
Nice colours! Great capture.
oh! this is one of my favourite plants! great shot!!
wonderful shot, Carin, and I expecially like the framing in this one...smile
Simply beautiful!
Oh Geeez Carin !! That is a heartbreaker !! so sorry to hear that, Why is it we put off saving to CDs ??, I'm really bad at that, and your photos are so beautiful, as is this one that you posted, Keep up the great work! [^__^] Hugs, Roger
Your image is beautiful! Sorry to hear about your loss. I can totally relate to that one.
Lovely blooms, is there no hope for the return of your files? I hate when that happens.... I've started myself on a program of monthly backups after my last scare.
