Service Interruption

No, no new image at the moment. SmugMug, my image hoster suffers from an outage of Amazon's Simple Storage Service (S3), their storage hoster. S3 has been dead for at least three hours now, and it looks like it will take them at least another hour. Oh bummer!

Hardware Trouble And Stupidity

It's Saturday morning now. The computer in Carinthia seems to have died a sudden death. Yesterday evening I wanted to begin working on the entry for Tuesday, suddenly the screen went black and this was it. Rebooting does not help. The computer seems to hang. I can't tell for sure, because it does not display anything. It worked only so long as to let me move my images of the last week from my portable hard drive.

"MOVE" is the word, yes. I can't remember ever having moved my data from the portable drive to one of my computers. I always copy. Well, this time I did not, and that means the images of Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday are now on a hard drive that I cannot access. I still have them in Vienna as well, but that does not help me at all at the moment.

At the moment I write from my laptop. I have everything I need for image processing installed, thus I could work on it. Grrrr .... what a mess!

Only A Placeholder

So many images, no time to work on them! I'll try to be back with the image of Tuesday this evening, and it should be possible to catch up over the weekend. Sorry for the delay.
