Day 4 and Counting

My Drobo disk-array is rebuilding after adding a new drive. Don’t know how long it will take. New images (including a meteor caught last night with two cameras) to follow. The down side to large storage solutions such as Drobo is the time required for backup and restore. Not sure if this will be hours or days!!!!

I did post some images on Google+ for the following themes: #FloralFriday 
#FrogFriday  #FungusFriday  #FallFriday  #FlowingWaterFriday

For a list of all of the Daily Google+ Photography Themes
