    Ha! Nice. That is an incredible photo

    I travelled Argentina for a month back in 2011. I had my DSLR with me with new lenses and took something like 6000 photos of iguazu, salta, Patagonia etc… Stored them all on a external hard drive when I got home. One day, a friend of mine accidentally knocked the drive over, and it failed. Lost all the photos. I only have an album of a few hundred I uploaded to FB at the time, so they’re all really low res ones that I redownloaded from FB.

    Moral = Make backups… Multiple backups.

      Wow that’s horrible, I’m sorry that happened to you. I definitely do need a better backup solution but I do at least have multiple copies on multiple external drives. I think I’m gonna ask my family to let me set up a server at someone’s house just to have a more stable solution. Great pics though, maybe some of the newer AI upscaling programs could get them close to how they looked before
