Right Foot, Left Foot

Photographically, I’m not starting out the new year on the right foot - or should I say the left foot. I broke my leg in September and am still recovering. after a second surgery to remove two pins in my lower leg set me back a couple of weeks, it is healing nicely. I’m walking in a boot, and using a walker, but I expect to be out of the boot and back on both feet again by the end of this month.

The real downside to all of this is that I have not been able to go out and shoot photos, and it’s been driving me crazy! After four and a half months of smoke from forest fires we had a most beautiful Autumn and it just killed me not to be able to take advantage of the great weather. I can only take so many photos from my front porch…

I did however, get a ton of work done on the computer.  For some time now I’ve been wanting to scan all of my slides into digital images, - seven, three inch, three ring binders, overflowing with slides. I figured it would take me weeks - maybe months to get them all done. I had them completed in five days. Amazing how much you can get done when you have all day to devote to a project.

On top of that, the week before I broke my leg I had purchased a 4 terabyte external hard drive, and spent countless hours editing all of my photos and transferring them to the new drive, and deleted everything that was unusable. Note to self: be sure and edit all of your photos before you send them to the external hard drive!
