today's picture might seem lame, but there is a story behind it. when i left NZ, i sent my laptop home and that meant that i couldn't transfer pictures from my camera to the laptop. that was a little scary because i had to get through Australia, Malaysia, the whole of Africa, Germany and Ireland without backups of all my awesome to be photos. luckily i avoided losing or deleting all my photos. it turns out that an 8 gig memory card and thousands of photos/videos is a lot for my camera to handle.
usually when i hit review it shows the last picture taken. at one point my camera couldn't handle the amount of pictures on the card and started showing the same photo no matter what. that was fine when i only had to scroll down 10 or 20 pictures to get to the relevant one, but when i hit review and was in the middle of thousands of photos, it would take a minute to scroll all the way to the current photo. luckily i found out that if i took a picture and immediately hit review, it would show the latest photo. that's what today's picture is, a quick snapshot taken to avoid having to scroll to the ones that i really wanted to see. sometimes i deleted the quick snapshots, because they were never pictures of anything, but sometimes i didn't. now they're as much a part of the story as the "real" pictures i took.
gripping storytelling again from the wide world of sean's trip.
