Wonderful photos! No apologies, please. I've discovered that having two granddaughters to shoot has revitalized my photography.
I'd suggest to all that casual snaps are part of our cultural heritage. They give us a window into the past, even if of strangers. We can see how people dressed, how a familar street corner looked 50 years or more in the past.
As a retired librarian I fear that the move to digital will mean that our descendants will have very few family photos. How many digital shooters print out their shots, or move the images from the computer to a somewhat more reliable storage medium? Not many, I'll bet.
I'm sure that most of us on this forum rely on careful storage of negatives and slides, and redundant backup strategies - well, don't you? If you don't, just remember that a hard drive WILL FAIL. The only question is when. I had two drives in a RAID 1 array fail within minutes of each other. Many of the images were on a cloud backup system, but BackBlaze, the one I use, hadn't finished the backup, so many images are gone forever. None of the data recovery programs have worked, and I can't afford the commercial services.
Thus endeth the service for today. Sorry for preaching, but after my little disaster I try to spread the gospel of backups.
