Resting Before the Rest of the Trip

Ok, this is the last of my pelican shoot. He was the first one we saw. He was sitting on the rocks shaking. At first we feared he was sick but after quite a while, he flew off to join the other pelicans and gulls getting handouts from the fisherman on a near by dock.
News on the computer front...dying hard drive. So I'm hoping it won't die before the new computer arrives. What do others use for backup of their hard drives?

Beautiful shot. Hopefully your computer lasts until the next comes

[Helene]

Wonderful. Love the colors...

You know how to get FAVs from me... don't you? just show a pelican. Beautiful.

[Ross Walker]

iomega external hard drive and software, with separate backup of photos on CDs.

[Dave Morrow]

Cool capture, very calm and serene

[Ellen Young]

I put all of my pic's on an external hard drive..you can get them at BestBuy and they are not very expensive for alot of space and then it wont slow down or Crash your computer!! Been there and done that!! :)

[Jennifer]

Great shot!!! We have an external hard drive too.

[Sassik]

Nice yellow head it has! Great shot!

[Judith Greenwood]

Fab again - love him. We use an external backup - little box thing with a couple of terabytes of storage.

[Junan Heath]

Beautiful capture! Lovely colors on this pelican. I use external backup too, called Clickfree.

[Dawn Irwin]

I love his yellow head! So glad he was ok.
I back up my computer to an external drive and also have a portable drive just for pictures. Rule of thumb, get an external drive twice the size of your computers hard drive.

[Netkonnexion]

Wonderful shot!

[Linda Lorraine]

Another great plican for your series here. Agree with Dawn above on the external drive

[Jane Pittenger]

@dawnirwin How come twice the size of the hard drive?

[Brian Baptie]

Great capture and best of luck on the computer front.

[Ruth Moucharafieh]

Best Buy external hard drives 100$ or so i think.....Beautiful bird, love the feather detail.

[Alison Tomlin]

A handsome chap. Yep when I remember I use an external hard drive.

[Kelly]

Go the external hard drive and back up before the photos are unable to be retrieved. Coming down in price all the time. Gorgeous detail in the bird and great composition

[Juliette Packham]

lovely peilcan shot - I back everything important up on a couple of external USB hard drives - they are pretty cheap nowadays

[Bobbyj]

[Pam Hawkes]

[Lisa]

Beautiful creature! Love the detail in the feathers.

[Pam]
