Cafe Mocha

A few cups of this will get me through today's special project:
backing up all my photos to DVD's and removing them from my hard
drive. I've already backed them up to an external drive, so this
is a redundant back up. I will regain about 30gb on my internal
drive, which is about half of it. Before jpgs and iTunes, I had
a fairly empty hard drive despite ten years of business documents
and records on it!

This completes the week of fixed focal point, but I've gotten so used to
the little guy on my camera I'm not sure when I'll take him off. No
cropping here, just a little USM and of course adding the white line.

Wow, that would grow hairs on your chest it's so strong :>) Love the cup & your fixed focals that have been a roaring success for you & great for us to view.

Very nice image. I really like this, it`s simple and fantastic. Of course delicious!!

I like this a lot, Gary. The black background is very effective.
It sounds like we all have trouble with storage space!

Perhaps I should borrow that lens when you're through and take it around to the nasty side of town.... ;^)

Yum! I have an external 200 gig harddrive arriving this week ... isn't it sad the things that make us happy? ;)

Excellent image Gary. Clean and sharp.
Way to do your PC housecleaning,

Wonderful shot! I have been cleaning off my hard drive also!
Guest 22-May-2005 23:02
Nice job for the final shot.
I've got a cup going right now as well.
You'd not be the only one to keep the 50mm on full time I think.
Guest 22-May-2005 22:22
Great comp and lighting - the color depth on this is outstanding. Ahhhh- the java of it all. Can't get goin in the mornin without it. At least I can't. Have a great week!
Guest 22-May-2005 21:27
thanks for reminding me to do a chore which is supposed to be done months ago. :)

Great shot. I did backing up and releasing HD last weekend so I have sympathy with you.
Cliff22-May-2005 18:47
I'll need several gallons of this to get through what I need to do. My 160 GB HD is fast filling and I definitely have to unclutter it. Congrats on the week of FF lens - I almost made it ! :o)

I am ruthlessly going thru old photos and ditching 3/4 of them right now, with the same intent. But I can't get the DVD to write. Next stop is the external drive.

Good shot of the stuff that drives us-and think of how much you've learned in just a week. A good project!
Guest 22-May-2005 18:04
Well, congratulations! I need to do the same thing!
This is excellent and helpful member of your team!

I like the black background, enhances the contrast a lot. Nice colors.
Sounds like a fun project, approaching that time myself -- I've got about 2 Gb of free space.
