Just been doing the old hard drive clean.
Clicked on the MY PICTURES folder and started having a little delve into the archives. Found LOTS of pics there - some dating back to my 1 megapixel days of 1999.
Decided that it was a shame to have some of these pics yet very rarely look at them.
Sorted them out, copied 300 on to a cd, went to costco and got them printed out!!!
Digital photography is great, but you can't beat the feeling of opening your prints for the first time - to see what they look like 'on paper'. Then organising them, then looking at them again ...... quality!!!!
And just for the record ..... here's one of the shots from 1999 - me surfing (I'm the good looking one on the right!!!!). EDIT - just realised it's from 2002! Still a classic though eh?
Happy days.
All I need now is an album to stick them in and write witty comments!!!
