Only this morning I searched through my 35mm photos for photos from my holiday in Barcelona and I had to smile or grimace as I flicked through several years of photos – Paris, Spain, Chicago, Ireland.. All memories, good and bad. That’s fine for a once in a while trip down nostalgia lane but searching my digital images is easier.

Well, the 35mm photos I took when we were in Paris were all destroyed when we had a water mains burst at work in Ballincollig, and the only thing that remained were the few photos I had scanned in. So there are pro’s to digital photo storage, even though the feeling of holding something tangible in your hands can’t be beaten either.
