Lost images!
I’ve been cleaning up my files in Lightroom (LR) and found that I had over 2,000 images that were not being found by the LR catalogue. Thank goodness I just got done with LR class and learned how to find them again! Then while cleaning out the files I deleted the wrong file extensions! YIKES. After I got my breath back, I went to the Trash Can on my desktop – sorted by creation date – highlighted what I wanted back – and found a wonderful word as a choice – RESTORE. Yes . . . I clicked on that magic word and my images that I had accidentally tossed went back to where they were suppose to be and I was able to reimport them to my LR catalogue. Someone was looking out for me.
When culling thru my images, I find that what I thought was all that 2 years ago is not that at all! Is it because I’m getting better images or is my taste in what I like changing? I find that I don’t really like Landscape Photography that much. People Photography is a real challenge for me. I feel I’m invading someones privacy when I take pictures. Taking pictures of people I don’t know . . . out living their lives . . really takes me outside my comfort zone. Last year I photographed for the fair. It’s funny how having a little badge hanging around your neck gives you permission to get closer to strangers to take their pictures.
