I actually have most of them ready to go, but I am missing the card that has the last day's pictures on it. I'm now having to go through countless cards to find them. We usually try to keep everything together, but because we each have a camera and are constantly taking shots, we each have a card. On this trip though, the unfortunate thing happened that we both used up our cards and so we had to turn to back up cards we brought that had other random pics on them. Now we have to find those cards. Due to the nature of how I have put my pictures together, I have to have all of them before I can post :( But I bet I can smell another report complete with pictures in the very near future! ;)

Me too. I always leave them on the camera until I can see them full screen on my monitor. Some that looked good tiny didn't look so great and others I thought I would delete turned out to be keepers, like the Tree of Life at Night pic I posted. I thought I would delete that when I looked at it through the camera screen.
We do this too! I can't tell you how many times I thought a pic would turn out awful but was great! (and vice versa)

Same here! Sometimes it even happens that a picture I thought I didn't like actually grows on me. This one is a perfect example of that. At first I didn't like it because the people are blurred due to motion, but the more I look at it the more I like it... the blurring actually captures the excitement of the moment.

Honestly, I couldn't tell you. :oops:
I was playing around with the settings on my camera while in line and I don't remember which setting this pic came from. That's the heck of it. I'll take the same pic 20 times all on different settings and using different timing...but when it comes to picking out the ones I like, I can't remember what each one was.
