Pandora Recovery: Saving you from a worst case photography scenario

Every once in a while, advice I give pays off. So it was the case when I told my brother not to give up hope on the hundreds of photos he lost because of an accidental delete incident. Computers (and computer programmers) are lazy. Just because they say something is deleted, doesn't make it so. I warned him that he'd probably pay a steep price for getting the photos back, but it should be possible.

Shows you what I know. A few days later he reports in: the answer is Pandora Recovery! He downloaded this free utility, let it churn for a few hours, and it gave him the chance to recover hundreds of photos. In the end, he got back all the photos he had accidentally deleted.

Crisis averted. And I learned about a new tool I hope I'll never need to use.

  1. I truly feel evaluating white and black photography with it's film counterpart is similar to comparing apples with grapefruits. They simply are not the same in look and feel. I discussed this in detail partly 1 of this range. When speaking to professional photographer Hellen More Info Van Meene she explain movie as possessing "secret". Now I'm not sure exactly what the techical phrase for wonder is but artistically I realize exactly what Hellen indicates.
