A Slight Pause and other stuff

Over the last few weeks I've been adding as many photographs as I can to my various blogs and Flickr badges, but I've run into a couple of problems. Cd's that won't open. So I've been hunting through my negative archive and re-scanning the original negatives. Thank God I'm on film!
These Cd's are only about 6 years old and have been sitting in a box for about that length of time.

I just don't trust digital photography. It's great for speed, but not for duration, it scares me the "fragility" of this whole new world.

It's a little like the story of "The Emperors New Clothes" Everybody is so happy with what they can "see", but it's that one voice from the crowd that everyone eventually hears.

My voice I think will be lost in the din of the crowd.

So if you find images on any page or badge with a different tag it may just have been because I've re-scanned and ended up with a different file name.

How many digital files have you lost and not been able to retreive?
