Time and Patience

Gratitude Day #6
I bought a new computer. Why is it so *?!# hard to transfer data and to set up a new computer. I've been at this since about 8AM this morning and it's now 4:30PM. Not done yet. I'm grateful that I have the time to go through this process. The patience, I'm afraid, is wearing a little thin.

No fun! But it’s new!

I admire you for even attempting it! This is something that I would leave to someone else and not try myself! You are much braver than I am. This photo and the processing are a perfect depiction of how insane it must feel for you! Nicely done, Kathy

[Cazzi]

Oh dear I really feel for you. Glad you had the patience to take a 365 photo whilst feeling frazzled. Love the edit.

[Pyrrhula]

I get this done as one of the terms and condition of the sale on the new one.

[Call me Joe]

👌💕👌

[Corinne]

Respect to you , I will ask professional ;)

[Carol McClelland]

Very nice effect.

[Kathy A]

I recently bought a new iMac, I got them to do it all in the Apple store

[Taffy]

Great narrative -- I feel your pain! But it's such an intriguing shot that you day inspired. Love the processing.

[Lisa Poland]

Great editing.

[Wylie]

well you've created an interesting scene, but I can feel your frustration.

[Susan Wakely]

Great effect and respect to you for persevering.

[bkb in the city]

Well Kathy it will be worth it in end

[Margaret Brown]

Nice effects and I don’t envy you your job

[haskar]

Great effect. I know what you're feeling. I am tired of updating my computer.

[GaryW]

Very cool effect!!
This is exactly why I keep my current computer and put up with how sloooow it is!!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

You are really brave for doing the tech thing- I probably would have brought the old computer to the store and had them do it for me. I would be afraid to do it myself! The way you processed the picture is perfect for your narrative!

Hi Kathy, it looks like you and I are partnered again this week! For your new challenge, how about trying a bit of light painting? Google "light painting images" for inspiration as needed. :-)

[Tunia McClure]

Good for you for doing it yourself. I would have to have my son on speed dial.

[Jennie B.]

I could never do that. I give you lots of credit for attempting this project.

Thanks for everyone's supportive comments and encouragement. Well, I think I'm almost done. (This said at 10:51pm Sunday, two days later.) It's worth it. Lightroom is working so quickly as are the other programs on the computer. There is no Apple Store for 70+ miles. The computer (brand new) has already updated twice. I guess it will continue. Planned obsolescence is the name of the game anymore. But I am grateful I could do this myself. I don't want to fall behind too much.

@aikiuser I just now saw this Jenn. I'll be behind on this one, I'm sure.

[aikiuser (jenn)]

@randystreat I'm a bit behind on my end as well. I'll get something figured out by Sunday hopefully! :-D
