Photo Studio

After the disappointing fiasco I had with ordering, I was excited when my Mac Studio and Studio Display arrived last week. I carefully positioned everything where I wanted it (for now), attached the external hard drives, switched on the Mac Studio and patiently waited the 20 minutes it took the Migration Assistant to transfer my profile and application configurations to the new Mac. The Studio Display is brilliant, and the new Mac Studio is snappy. It's faster than I expected it to be. I don't have much to report as yet. I imported all the images I captured on my Fuji X-T3 when I was "offline", and it will take some time to delete, edit and post those images.

As is the recent custom in our home, the computing devices are named for our favourite Lord of The Rings characters. I have decided to keep the last name, Gandalf, used for the iMac. However, a part of me wants to make a small change to Gandalf the Grey.

World Water Day

World Water Day is an annual United Nations event, started in 1993, focusing on the importance of water. I attended a free event at the Watershed Institute to celebrate World Water Day. There were games for kids and explorations in the labs. I did not participate in any of the outdoor water-themed arts and crafts, but I did walk along the nearby trail and explored some vernal pools. Ar the Water Bar, I tried a sample of different small cups filled with drinking water from local towns and wells and voted on which one I thought tasted the best. It was a surprise to me that I prefered the local municipal water. I learned about the importance of protecting the local waterways and the various actions I can take to keep our water clean, safe and healthy.
