I Need A Whipping - DPChallenge Forums

Ha....get your mind out of the gutter.

Nah....I need someone to whip my lazy ass. I made a stupid mistake. I can't find the original for my Other Art Forms entry because I was lazy. I usually always first put all my images onto my external hard-drive...then work from there. My external hard-drive is full, so I just left them on the card. I did save the edited ones (which was just four) but I left the originals on the SD card....thinking that "I need to transfer those over to my new hard-drive that is sitting on the table 30 feet away"....well I never did.....days later I forgot that I had not transferred the images and deleted them and shot just a few images around the house. Sooooo... I used a recovery program to see if the images can be recovered. I have found only about half of them on the recovery software. I can't seem to find the one's that I took near the end of the session, probably written over by the few images I shot around the house. The recovery software did find about 1170 files, but not the ONE I am looking for.

LESSON LEARNED:
Get myself up off my lazy ass, and walk across the room to retrieve the new hard-drive, then walk the 30 feet back to your computer, unwrap the hard-drive, plug it in, sit down (on my lazy ass), copy and paste the images onto the hard-drive, then edit them. Don't forget! Can Grog hit me over the head with his club?

DQ for me.

'NUFF ladies! No more posts unless it includes a picture (go

snaffles!):-)

Jokes apart, it hurts to see people go through this sh!t again...

Sorry

njsabs.

ETA: Another proof that sh!t happens, and not everyone is out to fool the SC as some jump to conclusions and say.

When I first saw this topic on the front page, I mistakenly thought this was posted in the Challenge Suggestion topic, and just thought "Ohhhhh dear"

Sorry about the (future) DQ. Maybe you overlooked it in the over 1000 images?
Its an awesome image with or without the pink dq border.

Don't feel bad Jennifer. I just realized yesterday that for some time I have been downloading my NEF files from the camera using Lightroom and having them automatically converted to DNG files. I then reformat the cards in camera. So now I have no originals for those or at least I don't think they will accept DNG's as originals. Luckily I have not entered much lately.

That drive hooked up yet?

Oh how awful! It is such a wonderful shot!

Although, what's worse is that it's not a challenge that I was in, so I can't move up a spot. Next time you should be more considerate and get dq'd from the correct challenge :P

Seems like you have the wrong tool there. The photo was already cropped...

Bwahahahahaaa, Shannon made a funny! ;-)

And yeah technically it IS a riding crop I am wielding. I could substitute a lunge whip, I suppose, but wouldn't look half as intimidating. Or painful. :-)
