    Hi LoHat! Great to have you with us. Welcome to Waterpixels!

     

    Coral conservation and restoration, eh? That sounds like a super subject for an article...... How about it?

    Hi Ashok

     

    I use LR Classic which is slightly different I think but my suggestion would be: if you still have the file(s) on the SD card, delete the version in LR and then re-copy them from the SD card to LR using LR Import.

     

    Or, If you know where the image is on your external HD, you can, as you have seen, point LR to it and LR will then change the location of the picture on its database. I think you could batch move these by going into the grid view, selecting the images, right clicking and then Go To Folder which will show their location in LR. You can then drag them where you want. Obviously though if they are in different folders to stat with, batch moving may not be feasible. What you don't want to do is move their location outside of LR. LR then gets lost.

     

    I'm not sure if that helps or not!

    @TimG lost your bet. She edited my spelling mistakes. 🫣

    I know this is off-topic, but I had to share this with you in light of the Post-Truth purchase comments:

     

    I fitted a ridiculously expensive sound system into my Smart FourTwo car many years ago. The manager laughed when I said he had to swear if asked by my ex that it cost £475.

     

    He said some weeks previous, he had fitted a 5-figure system to a client’s Jaguar and had agreed he would tell the client’s wife it cost £1200.

     

    … and of course, she came into the shop some days later and said her husband’s new car sound system was so wonderful she wanted the exact same system in her Volvo. The manager charged her £1200.

     

    The manager told me he had then to call her husband and explain that he would have to pay an extra £9000 to cover the cost!

     

    How we laughed. True story.

    I was (and am) a little blown away at how well the transition was implemented.

    Thanks, Gary! Much appreciated. 

    I suspect the team are a bit surprised by how well it's gone too. Massive sense of relief. But, really, it's all about the enthusiasm of the members - especially the refugees - and the contributors. The response has been fantastic.

    all Any ideas on ideal lenght of cables if you don`t curl them. Do you use separate lenght for macro /wideangle setup?

    I made separate ones for macro and wide-angle.   I just built the gear the way I’d use it then measured with the arms fully extended. Then added a bit for good measure. If they prove to be too long, just cut them after initial trials.
