It is gut wrenchingly awful when something like that happens. We've all had it, and we all learn by our mistakes. It always seems to happen when shots are unlikely to be repeatable.

I really should hope so. In my case it was with pictures of a burning house - my house. Oh well, they were otherwise fine, but the ISO was 1600 in the early evening.Zonda wrote:It always seems to happen when shots are unlikely to be repeatable.
Ouch. I don't want to rub salt into your wounds - but that would have been one hell of a photo. I mean, it's pretty darn good as it isDenise wrote:I had a Hummingbird Hawk-moth today and I was gutted as I took photo's on the wrong setting. This is what I ended up with.
Yeah I have done that before, now I quickly check the camera is on right mode before I shoot, but because of where the M is on the dial, not always easy to get it right, especially when you have to get a shot fast. But you think you had it bad? I went last year to a place that is about 50-60 miles away from where I live, really wanted to go there and get photos as I had been told by the huge numbers of common blues and meadow browns there (in their hundreds) and only Northern Irish location of green winged orchids too, only place in Ireland to see them or something. I get there, guess what? I left my camera battery behind! Can't take any photos. I did see large numbers of meadow browns and quite a few common blues, but no shots! Gotta get back there in the spring.Gruditch wrote:A couple of years ago we had but one single day of snow. I must of took 300 images at various locations that day, only to get home and find the camera was on M. I had only checked the viewing screen once the whole morning, and out of the 300 images I took, the only one I checked, was the only one that came out, I could of cried.![]()

I'd say it is a pretty good thought too. However, UKMoths claims june to august, which is a bit problematic here. Second generation?ChrisC wrote:as it looked quite small i was looking at a worn Least minor.By no means a definite ID , just a thought.
