September was down again in terms of number of pictures processed, but I was not at a computer for many days in September. (I wonder if I could correlate the number of travel days with the number of pictures processed). There are only 9GB of new pictures from September, so maybe not adding too much to the backlog. Desperately trying to have less than a two-year picture backlog. Looking at the chronological order, there are some big trips in the backlog, like New Caledonia in November 2023 and the Travers Sabine in February 2024. It is challenging when there is a set of 400 pictures from a day.
Grenoble, Montreal, Beaver Valley, stuck in Ontario, and then Auckland. Master’s graduates +1. Lots of service and volunteering.
I took some more pictures in August, but not as many as July. I also somehow had less time to process pictures. Plus, there are a couple of sets that I’m not posting here. I don’t know if I dug myself deeper into a hole. Caught up a bit with some May and July photos, as well as some August phohtos. Anyway, less than July but more than June.
Not out of the woods yet. Weather and other issues (but mostly weather) causing flight issues in New Zealand.
Mount Olympus (Greece), the Tour du Mont Blanc, and a VSTTE submission.
The Tour du Mont Blanc, 170km of walking around Mont Blanc (and some cable cars).
Attempted some summits on Mount Olympus. Got the big two: Stefani and Mytikas. But not the whole set.
How I managed to fly to New Zealand as soon as possible after the Air Canada Flight Attendant strike, oof.
Yay! A submission wholly in support of a government initiative (Ontario) which legitimizes climbing at Devil’s Glen Provincial Park (and hopefully others in the future).
Managed to do a lot of photos despite two big trips (Olympus, TMB) in July, including a quick turnaround on the bulk of the Olympus photos.
