Retro Processing and New Discoveries:  A Glacier in Iceland by taffy

Retro Processing and New Discoveries: A Glacier in Iceland

Will be off and on for the next month on the site, due to ongoing camera challenges as well as travels and visitors. My major birthday has just passed. Celebrated entering a new decade by spending the day with @jyokota who gave me the ideal present: an almost 3 hour tutoring session (online with expert in Lightroom) who helped me sort out the mess of my catalogue from the crash in March of 2017 after our Iceland trip. And taught us both about how much more we have to learn about workflow in Lightroom (and on top of that perfect present, she baked me chocolate chip cookies AND took me to lunch!). A great day! So I have been combining, eliminating, reorganizing the catalogue -- discovering almost 500GB of duplicate and delete-able files in the process. As well as finding some treasurers I didn't even remember I had and were worth processing (not deleting), like this one that I felt captures the magic that is Iceland.
What a great learning day & with a great friend Happy birthday. Nice shot

Amazing landscape- it almost looks like clouds in the sky.

A magic image. Nice you sent the day with your lovely friend @jyokota
December 17th, 2018  
Definitely magical :)

Happy birthday, sounds a very useful course. Look forward to seeing where your travels take you

Oh, how fantastic! I hadn't realised it was a special birthday! How kind and considerate of Junko to offer you those gifts. Friends. We all need them, don't we?! Lovely image too!
December 17th, 2018  
Thank you for being so appreciative! I laughed when I saw the almost three hours because it truly was. 7 minutes less than three hours. But we learned a LOT in that time and most of all I feel inspired to clean up my catalog and get it ready for lesson 2 some time. This is a wonderful shot from Iceland and I love the clarity of the structure. I haven’t looked at the ones taken on that rental camera because those files were so enormous I had to import them into aperture. Now you’ve inspired me to look for them.

What an amazing landscape... like clouds! Lovely. 500 gig of found space sounds like another b-day present, too.

Did you get to return your Z7?
December 19th, 2018  
@jgpittenger It went back today. The Z6 should be sent out tomorrow. Fingers crossed that the Z6 is the right choice and doesn't have the problems I ran into. It was so discouraging that I've barely taken a picture in the past few weeks! But in a way, it's worked out as I've had so much to do to get my drive cleaned off. Hoping to start the new year with everything cleaned up and functioning!

Amazing!
December 20th, 2018  
Incredible shot and what a great way to celebrate a special birthday! Iceland is on my bucket list and I have started thinking about planning for the best time of year to encounter the Aurora. That timing is tricky of course.

Happy Belated Birthday and what a great gift. Wish we could all sit in a room and clean up photos and get organized. I am not organized due to changes on my MAC photos a few years ago that I never figured out so I have lots of duplicates and a bit of a mess. Enjoy being organized. Great photo by the way.
