A very rotund — quite possibly bulbous — groundhog has taken up residence in our neighbourhood:

Canada Day softball
On Canada Day, I rigged up my bicycle with a camera set to take a picture every 20 seconds, and a GPS to track my location. I had no control over when the camera would fire as I rode round the neighbourhood. Out of the 150+ photos it took, this one from Jack Goodlad park came out quite well:

arach, no phobia
Unless you really like spiders, I don’t recommend you see my picture spider in the basement.

help for the Weston user in your life
Talk about displacement activity: in the week or so before selling the house and upping and off to Canada, I scanned and converted the Weston Master V Exposure Meter and Invercone Instruction Book to HTML. -
Recoverfab – for all your memory card recovery needs
NB to readers: I am not the Recoverfab guy. I can’t help you recover images.
A friend has baby pictures on an SD card, which said baby later found and used as an inappropriate teething aid. Yeah, yeah, I know …
He asked me to try to get the pictures back. I couldn’t read the card. It even fried one of my card readers. I tried RescuePRO, PhotoRec and PhotoRescue: no dice. Downtown Camera returned it as unreadable (and declined to charge me anything).
So I asked metafilter, and someone suggested Recoverfab in Germany. I sent the card off last week, and waited …
Got an e-mail at 06:30 this morning that they’d received the card, with a latest completion date of a week. Before 09:00, received a second e-mail with a link to picture samples and payment options. Have paid (not cheap – €89, but they got results) and am awaiting the FTP link.
Many thanks to Leopold Hiersche for his excellent results.

beautiful eye
I hope this gull is okay. It really needed water to drink, so I gave it some.
