Quoting Walt Gilbert<[email protected]>:

I only managed to take a couple of photos this year that I think may be
worth submitting. I figure I might as well take a shot at it. Glad to
know I didn't miss the deadline. And thanks for the link!

You're saying I dragged your sorry butt all over the bay area and you
didn't get any decent shots?

That's gratitude for you.

I got some GREAT shots while I was out there! Unfortunately, they're all on
two dead hard drives -- both RAW and JPEGs!  I guess my motherboard sent
voltage spikes to them through the USB as it was going down, and I don't
have the resources to try to recover them.  Every shot I ever took before
this past July -- GONE.

Sorry to hear that Walt.  A few years ago I had that happen to me...
exactly when I was backing up my photos.  Thankfully I upload high
quality versions to my smugmug or I would of been up the creek.  So
till i can find some exact working boards for the drives, i can't
recover   (many times a drive can be brought back from the dead by
replacing the exact board on it with another).

Thanks, Adam.

It was a pretty depressing thing, but relatively minor on balance in the context of the year as a whole.

This year promises to be better.  I have a notarized statement.
