Thoughts and travels of Patrick Lam

September: photos post

NZ: Whakapapa (2026); Japan: Kumano Kodo (2025); Greece: Mytikas, Xerolakki, and Thessaloniki (2026); N Macedonia: Korab (2026); Rome (2005); TMB; Japan: Tokyo (2025)

August: photos post

NZ: Catlins (2024) and Kaikōura (2026); another TMB day; field hockey in Vancouver; skiing in Québec; and fresh pictures from Olympus.

July: photos post

Some weekend trips in July, and processing the ensuing pictures, as well as others from the backlog.

June: photos post

No travels but fewer pictures processed than May, maybe due to reading more books.

May: photos post

A more reasonable May, though still a fraction of photos processed numbers compared to late last year. Backlog under two years. Last Cascade Saddle set; Travers Sabine 2024; and one more TMB day.

March and April: photos post

Neither took nor processed many photos in the last two months, but that still means that the backlog extends further back in time.

(January and) February: photos post

Oops, back to 2 years of backlog, though barely. Better do something about that.

December: photos post

Still less than 2 years of backlog, though January will be slower for sure, with 3 courses of teaching.

November: photos post

Less procrastination in November, though also no travel, so still a high number of photos processed. Notably, the oldest unprocessed set is now December 2023, so less than 2 years of backlog.

October: photos post

In October I was working on my NSERC Discovery proposal, so I may have procrastinated sometimes by processing pictures. I selected way more pictures than in any recent month (1330 versus 846 in July), and the total number of pictures in the pool was 16% higher in July (3883 versus 2642). July did include a large collection of Estonian bird photos (710) and a walk up to Apostolidis (528). This month, on the other hand, I had lots of tiny sets, including in-transit days. Still, there were 13 over-100-picture days. (updated: spreadsheet error)
