And Just Like That, It’s October 👴🏿

My music library is still a mess!I’m finding folders with no files within.Where did they go?I was in the mood for some Duke Ellington with Charles Mingus; and the mp3’s were missing! 😱Shout Out if you feel me!My resolve is to inspect every single folder (nearly 900 of those bad boys!). I just took a snap out of our kitchen window as I saw the clouds. color starting point - no adjustments B &W starting point - straight desaturation I had dusted off my Nikon DX mirrored DSLR camera.I’ve set it to RAW, Aperture Priority, F8, ISO max 1600, and exposure compensation -1.Two lenses will take me from 18 - 200mm and anywhere in between.And since I have to look at the images on the computer screen anyhow, those settings grant me an excellent starting point for editing.I’m using an open source program called RapidRaw. So far, so good.I’ll write about it later in the month. Click the images to enlarge. It’s 1963. Duke Ellington, age 63, without a recording contract, is jamming in a trio setup…
