Pointilliste Walk


Pointilliste Walk, originally uploaded by emmacuesta.

During my photo class in Scotland something happened to one of my cards and I couldn't retrieve the photos. I've kept it all this time and this weekend I found a freeware program called PC Inspector Smart Recovery that recovers images from damaged drives and cards. I was so happy when I saw this one come up, because I thought it would be one of my best images ever and losing it was very hard on my nerves!

It was a rainy day and we were visiting Little Fawn waterfall. I was trying to watch where I was going, as the trail had gotten really slippery. Suddenly I noticed there was light coming through the trees and I looked up to see this. I took the picture quickly as the light was already fading. I didn't do anything in PE other than up the contrast a little

I'm so glad that this picture was recovered also.

Wonderful doesn't even begin to cover it.

That is incredibly pretty.

There is nothing nicer than finding you can rescue pictures. We had a lovely set corrupt but a similar piece of rescue software restored them to us. Yay!

Amazing. I nearly cried when I saw them appear!

You're welcome. Your picture reminds me of the Birks of Aberfeldy. Unforturnately the day I went to see them, it was torrential rain and ended up sitting on a bus for several hours in dripping wet jeans. It was worth it though, even on a miserable day it was still a beautiful sight.

This was similar! Rain off and on all day, and I was just tired and about to give up and then... sun. For all of fifty seconds. Enough for one exposure. Then down to the waterfall... it was magical.
