Well, I guess it's about time to write at least a bit about myself to let you guys know something about the person behind the pics.
BIO
I was born on 19.01.1971 (that's why 71 is in my nick) in Hamburg/Germany. I still work there, but a few years ago my husband and I bought a small flat in a little town a bit up north.
Since I was a kid I always liked taking pictures. Until X-mas 2002 I used a Canon EOS 600 and was totally happy with that. My husband wanted a digicam and I thought we didn't really need one. Well, I guess I was wrong. Taking pics with our Fuji Finepix S304 is so much more fun. Especially since you can always try out a million things and then "throw away" the pics you don't like without having to pay for them being developed first :-) I'm still finding out how many possibilities there are in postworking - and viewing other people's galleries has inspired me a lot.
Thank you all so much for commenting on my pics. It really means a lot to me, if someone likes one of my shots and I always feel very bad, when I just can't seem to find the time to do that much commenting myself...
Hugs Drea UPDATE February 2006: As I feel really, really honoured that my gallery has been chosen as this month's "GOM", I of course just "have to" display the award going along with it here ;-)
UPDATE May 2006: I finally did it - bought a Canon 350D and will start to find out all those "new possibilities" coming along with it... Have to say, that I still love the Fuji and feel kind of bad putting it aside. But who knows - I might still use it from time to time anyway...

Superbly done, Drea. Your postwork is just fantastic. I love it. Hope you get all your files back soon! Big bravo on this one :))

I really dread what happened to you......... have been through it mysel and it sux........... I am sure u will recover it back. Most of the time it is trouble with the operating system and not the hard disc itself but then..... if it had anything to do with high voltage etc., I can't say. My elder bro......who is a geek, claims..... there is no hard drive that can go wrong unless you use a hammer on it........ if he is to be believed...... you will get everything back in no time. Keeping my fingers crossed for you .......... for yours is a masters collection.:O))

Oh, that is a very sad harddisk-story and no backup either: a hard lesson! But you will survive and keep on doing the good "shooting" :)

Hope you're getting your images back too!! Please take care of doing some backup in the future Drea. Would be horrible to lose all those fine images of yours!

I like the vintage look you gave it. I had a similar experience with data loss on some CF cards during my last trips, not as bad as yours though. Anyways I have taken measures now (backups mainly) to limit my losses.
