I spent the evening taking photos of this and that, only to download them tonight to find the files damaged. Not sure why, as I’d formatted my memory card as I always do prior to shooting, and the replay of the images in the camera was fine.

Too bad as I had some nice shots of a golden orb spider I found in the field, and of my dahlia and vegetable harvest. IMG_0732AWeb

Nonetheless, I did find that the corruption on the memory card created some images that I really like. In fact, I haven’t felt this level of photographic surprise for more than a decade, back to before the advent of the digital camera when I was still shooting film. Sometimes exposure or processing would yield unexpectedly delightful results, and tonight a shadow of that joy came over me as I saw these strange creations. IMG_0740AWeb

It was definitely enough to offset my annoyance at losing an evening’s worth of work. Here they are, with minimal postprocessing.
