Mont Tremblant
I had a few hours free yesterday and i decided to finish sorting the images i had from last year 
Unfortunately not enough time to do any post processing so i uploaded everything directly after removing duplicates, blurry and useless images. Most of the deleted images were from fireworks. It seems i need a remote control this summer.
I kept some images to make a few HDRs but … next time
Hopefully tomorrow i’ll have time to create a slideshow with best images and update the photo blog but until then, my gallery is here.
Watching movies, reading newspapers or surfing the internet i always find interesting quotes and to remember them, i just save them on a txt file. Sharing them is easy but getting feedback, well, let’s just say that there is no easy way to keep track who and what everyone likes while the quotes are in a text file so, i decided to install something like QDB. Unfortunately i only found 2 scripts. One written in Perl and one in PHP.
I don’t know Perl so, i decided to give a try to the one written in PHP. Well, it didn’t work so i decided to fix it myself. Looking at the code i was impressed but not in a good way. It was a mess of php and html, no way to make it to support short urls unless i modified all the files and more more other things so, i decided to write one myself

Early one evening a man was walking along a beach when he saw a boy picking up starfish and flinging them into the sea. The man asked the boy why he was doing this. The boy explained the starfish would die if left to the morning. The man asked the boy, “What difference will your efforts make when there are thousands of starfish on the beach?” The boy stopped and looked at the starfish he was holding and said, “It will make a difference to this one.”
Is all in the attitude!

At the end of the last week i did some “kamikaze” (software) tests with my Windows and, of course, it went wrong I lost both Vista and Win7 so, i had to find my Sabayon CD to recover grub again.
As soon as i logged in i saw over 500 updates 
but loosing 2 operating systems was not enough 
Checking Sabayon website i found a new version, 4.2.
I decided to download the ISO before starting to update 500 packages because i was almost sure something will go wrong.
And it went!

Kahnawake Pow Wow
I uploaded the images from Kahnawake Pow Wow on my gallery.
Unfortunately there are too many of them and i didn’t have time to choose a few and create a slide show.
I’ll be there next year too.
Some of the shots are great. Maybe next time i’ll amke a movie too
Today i went to Kahnawake for the Pow Wow festival with only one plan: take as many pictures as possible. Guess what … it rained … a lot. I couldn’t even take the camera out from the backpack. I’ll try again tomorrow. Hopefully it won’t rain.
Anyway, if you want to know what is all about, do a google search: Pow Wow
