This photo got corrupted and cr2hdr didn't want to process the RAW file into DNG like it normally does. In fact all images from this shoot suffered the same fate. :(

I can understand how the UFO and Bigfoot photographers feel when their photos of obvious encounters look like mush. ;) Mine is all stripey.

Anyway, it's a photo. Even a failed photo is a photo, and I'm not going to quit the daily photos over a bad photo. I'm just going to find out what's up with my camera and shoot better ones next. Hopefully.
