Looks like I just lost all of my mp3s. The drive I have all of them stored on just took a dive:

Already tried to do a fsck on it, no luck with that. Hm, maybe it's a bad cable..


UPDATE:
Turns out, yes, it was the cable. I replaced the sata cable with a different one, the one that was in there had 90deg angel connectors and didn't really seem like they fit too well. It was all I had at the time I put the drive in. But, with a new cable the drive is nice and happy. whew!

Time to do a backup.

Every Easter, theres a big race in San Francisco, the Bring Your Own Big Wheel . I took all of these photos with my D200, then put them all together in this nifty movie. It covers 3 of the races that went on that day and is made up of almost 600 individual pictures!

Just started to remix Deep Cuts Rub Your Body track. He's put up the ableton file for it as well. This is the first part of it I just got done and thought I'd share. I swear I will finish some of these tracks some day!

I recently got a new flash, this thing is great!

Here's a test shot from the first day with it.
