The Magic of Replacing a Hard Drive

The last few months my MacBook Pro has been running extremely slow. Granted it’s a 2015 model, but I couldn’t believe that it could possibly be this slow. I took all my photos off along with documents thinking that it needed to be “unclogged”, but that did not help at all. After researching different solutions and not being able to afford a brand new $1,200 computer at the moment, I decided to put a new hard drive in it. I put a 500 GB Solid State SATA Drive in and the results are amazing! My “old” computer is running as fast as it did when I first got it, over four years ago. A $80 hard drive saved me from buying a new $1,200 computer. Now I can open Adobe Lightroom so quickly and edit photos in a timely manner, which is making editing so much more enjoyable.

Civil War Photography

“When you photograph people in color, You photograph their clothes. When you photograph people in black and white, you photograph their souls” is one of my favorite quotes from Ted Grant. I have always had an interest and admiration for black and white photography. This last week I stumbled across a black and white photo during the civil war. After researching and going through the National Archives website, I have a new value and respect for each and every one of those photos and photographers that captured moments from the war. I believe there is a raw component to black and white photos that can not be replicated in color, and it is very special. Attached below is the National Archives website with many photos to view. https://www.archives.gov/research/military/civil-war/photos#toc-portraits-2
