So I lost my CF card slip in my first trip to WA, so I had to come home with tearful eyes I made a second trip to get some extra frames, but last week Tin Man Lee contacted me saying he had found my cards!!! He kindly mailed me the cards and today I downloaded the images. Thanks to SanDisk the extreme CFs had withstood extreme conditions, rain and low temperatures in over a month. All images downloaded successfully.
Thanks a lot Tin Man for locating my cards and thanks SanDisk for keeping my data safe and thanks to Conrad for putting me in touch with Tin Man
Here is an image from the first trip, the owl's face is wet
I can't believe Tin found your cards Arash. He emailed me and said, "Don't you have a buddy named Arash that lost his cards sometime ago, cause I've got em" Oh man I was so happy for you! I knew the files would be fine. Glad you got em back bro! And Tin, YOU DA MAN!

I love this forum! FMers are so awesome! Great shot Arash. The CF card soaked in too much rain and cold temperature, all the sun lighting had faded away ... !
I normally say it takes hard work and preparation to get good shots - not luck, but you were very lucky that Tin found your cards Arash. Congrats. A very nice shot by the way ~ Ron
Hi Arash and all, I finally registered in FM forum. Glad that I could help! I myself were amazed by this too. As I said, everything just came together. There was a girl whose name Trisha who picked up the CF card slip near where I stood at Damon Point. As I was holding the big glass and tripod and stuff, she approached me first and asked if I dropped it. Then I remembered you had posted that you lost it few weeks ago but I wasn't very sure. I suggested her to open the slip to take a look, and there I saw your name written on one of the CF cards. And with Conrad's network (indeed Conrad was the one who gave me all the useful info on Damon Point, thank you Conrad!) , within a minute he got hold of you. Talk about finding a needle in a haystack!
Hi Tim, good to see you! yes I think that's the same day, it happened probably after a few hours that we met.
