I took rather a lot of photos over the weekend, as in I've come home with 963. The file/photo numbering shows I'd got up to 1047 but I think the actual number taken was somewhat higher as I was deleting some of the complete failures straight after they were taken. Not all the photos are of the con guests, a few of the hotel plus some of the neighbouring lake and the wild life out there. It could take me a while to sort them out and put them on my website.

Draft versions of some of the pages of last weekend's photos, so far only photos from Friday and Saturday.They include some very similar photos which will probably get weeded before the finished versions, also I haven't checked hyperlinks to larger versions yet and there are one or two photos that I'm going to have to revisit now I see them alongside others.

And so the first day of Chevron 7.9 arrives, well it 'arrived' too early for me this morning - I'd fallen asleep around my usual weekday time yesterday evening so this morning I was wide awake at 4 am! I somehow doubt I'll manage to stay awake that late this evening, yes there is a party I could go to but if I'm tired I'm tired and sleep is required. It is one drawback of the end of summer term and the clocks changing, my body stays on summer time even if I try to sleep later and all for quite some time afterwards.

New camera arrived on Wednesday, had a little play with it that evening and some more yesterday. It doesn't 'feel' that different to the last one, okay a few of the controls are slightly different so it's just try things out and see what I get. Not sure how many photos I'm likely to take over the weekend so have packed as many sets of AA sized batteries as I've got (and ordered another box of 40 online last night) as I've no idea yet how greedy (or otherwise) new camera really is with them.

I may or may not post over the weekend, I did manage a test post on LJ a few days ago which worked fine, and if I do I suspect I'll just do it on LJ so if you're only reading my posts on DW I apologize.

Got an email from Olympus today about the shiny new SP-820UZ camera that they're bringing out.

40x optical zoom!
Yes I did type that correctly: 40x optical zoom.
AA batteries (can buy them just about anywhere)
Okay it would require buying some new memory cards since they've moved on to SD type rather than xD that my (now over 5 year old) SP-550UZ uses and no view finder, just screen on the back but I very rarely use the view finder anyway.

Googled it and one site said scheduled to go on sale from the end of September 2012 priced at £279.99.
I have a convention to go to first weekend of November ...

Yes you've got it, me wants!
Me thinks I'll be asking family for contributions towards it for my birthday.

If you want to see some of my photos taken in Bath last month they're on my LJ http://sazandra.livejournal.com/744185.html

Realized I didn't post a link to the weekend's photos here:

I think I've finished work on the photos from last weekend and the webpages for them
http://sazandra.tripod.com/convpages/sgw_page.htm

Have been through the last of my photos from Pegasus 4, uploaded them and done the pages.

Photos of guests at Pegasus 4 http://sazandra.tripod.com/convpages/p4page.htm
I haven't had time to go through the photos from Sunday evening yet (it's taken me this long to do the guests pages) so will do those at the weekend.

A couple of days later than I had planned: http://sazandra.tripod.com/convpages/sg14minus1_page.htm

It's taken me this long to just sort mostly photos of guests, haven't had time to work on various other photos.

Photos from yesterday http://sazandra.tripod.com/convpages/hewletts_page.htm

The lighting wasn't that great, just the 'normal' room lighting they have in the suite where at weekend cons they have the autographs/photos and dealers room. At least some of them worked okay.

Photos of the guests http://sazandra.tripod.com/convpages/p3page.htm

I downloaded my Pegasus 3 photos yesterday evening.

Suitably okay I took quite a lot of photos over the weekend moment when I added the numbers of photos and MB on the three memory cards I used.

Came home with: 288 photos (920MB) + 264 photos (835MB) + 123* (575MB*) which works out as a lot.
*includes 10 AVI files from Sunday evening - they're very boring to be honest.

Went through deleting the blurred ones, guests blinking at the wrong moments, fellow con goers getting in the ways and plain mess ups so have 208 + 185 + 114.
Have taken a copy of everything and divided the ones of the guests up by guest to be worked on for my websites later on.

Yesterday afternoon Dad and I went for a walk.

Somewhere in the middle of this is the River Thames:
