Little Grebe in rain storm.
Somebody put a post on a while back about their favourite shots.
This was mine but I put this up to stress the import of backing up your stuff. With a computer crash I lost the original and all I had was a reduced one which I had done for the web. It was the only decent shot I got that day. All I had left was an A4 print on semi gloss paper.
This is a scan off that print.
So back up now !!!

I got an external usb hard drive and found it was corrupting some of the stuff I was moving, so I took it out of the holder and stuck in with the DVD drive. So I now have three internal hard drives and so far so good ! Good old windows 98 !!

I don't care if you scanned this off a roll of toilet paper. It's a great shot. Eric

Very nice Little Grebe John, the rain drops are the icing on the cake.
Thanks for reminding me to backup my backups

Just goes to show that you can miss stunning shots by packing up and moaning about the weather. I can see why you like it so much John, a shot I would love to have taken

Hi John
I like this one allot the rain drops really make the shot I'm surprised we don't see more rainy shot living in the UK.

And this is from a scan of a print that you lost.. Never would have guessed.. Sorry to hear about that particular problem though and you have certainly executed this post extremely well. A superb capture and well done for braving the elements..

Another great shot John. The rain drops & bubbles complete complete the image.
I think I may have to invest in an external hardrive
