Some days ago I wrote about the cold, frosty mornings of Trás-Os-Montes. Here the lens of my mate João Maia captured me in one of those mornings.
Roughly year ago I was getting ready for my talk at National Geographic Exodus Aveiro Fest, one of my coolest experiences ever. This year I’m going back to be a “regular” attendee but I’m as stoked as always for an amazing and inspiring weekend!#ngeaf #ngexodusaveirofest #ngexodusaveirofest2019 www.instagram.com/p/Bq7WLFF… View this post on Instagram A post shared by João Pedro Almeida (@t3mujin) on Dec 3, 2018 at 5:43am PST
I’m not the most organized photographer, but in the last photo trips (and doesn’t need to be long ones) there are two habits I’ve been religiously maintaining:As soon as I return import the photos and run all my backup jobs, so that they’re safely stored,And don’t delete immediately the photos from my SD cards and travel backup storage (I usually keep two copies of the photos while on the road), not out lazyness but to have yet another backup in case the imports and culling go wrong, sometimes it remains there for weeks or even months. Today the later came to my rescue: somehow I deleted two days of Iceland photos, and that error already had propagated to my main backups. What could have been a disaster was just an annoyance of having to import those days again from the “original” storage devices, and eventually I’ll have to go through all those photos again.Moral of the story: backups do save your ass, and the more you have the merrier!
Sunseting in the Rocky Mountains, not a G&T or DJ in sight.
My first time seeing and trying to photograph Northern Lights. #iceland
You know you’re not a hard core landscape photographer anymore when the only tripod you bring for Iceland (and Rocky Mountains) is this…
After my first visit to Iceland people asked me what’s there to see, and I replied with a smile: Nothing!Not that it’s boring and void of interest, but it’s the space, the scale, all the space to breathe.Today while landing and setting foot at Keflavik airport I felt just that again!In the upcoming days I’ll be revisiting all this, follow my stories on Instagram! 🇮🇸
