Found - Digital Camera
"Chris Shearer Cooper" wrote in message ... I found a digital camera by the side of the road near Estes Park, CO, and would be glad to return it to its owner if I can find him! The pictures in the camera start in Missoula, Montana on 8/25/07, and show a group of 6 men camping and cycling through down through Montana, Idaho, Wyoming (including Yellowstone), pulling into Estes Park on 9/11. One of the early pictures showed the front of the Adventure Cycling in Missoula (I've contacted them already). I uploaded one of the pictures that shows all the guys here ... http://www.sc3.net/bike.jpg Anybody recognize them? Thanks, Chris This is really a reach, but the one guy with the beard appears to resemble Sheldon Brown, a prominent contributor on these forums. However, Sheldon is in poor health the last I heard so I don't know if that would be him or not??? You might try to Google his website for contact info and see. Like I said it is a stretch, but you never know ..... |

The picture was taken along the River Walk in Missoula. Funny thing, I was in Missoula on 8/25/07, but don't remember seeing these guys.

I know it's painful sometimes, but have you checked in the mirror to see if you resemble one of them? -- Bill Asher |

The camera's memory is a storage device with a file-and-directory structure that can probably be read by your computer. Plug it in and see if the owners left any kind of files there with identifying information. (I did -- a file called "OWNER" at the root directory of my camera chips, and likewise on my flash drives. You nver know: occasionally an honest soul finds these things after I lose them.) dave |

I uploaded one of the pictures that shows all the guys here ... http://www.sc3.net/bike.jpg Do I see something written on one of their gloves? Too bad you can't use the "zoom and enhance" image software that they use on those TV crime shows. Just zoom in on the spot , apply an "inverse Heisenberg compensation matrix" on one pixel, and you could read a name and phone number :-) More seriously... I wonder how long the camera was sitting beside the road? Are the batteries still charged? Does the camera's clock have the right date. I have seen several people's cameras where the the date was incorrect, most commonly from removing batteries. If the clock's date isn't correct, maybe they weren't in Missoula on Aug 25. The EXIF header on digital camera files actually has a provision for GPS data. But only a few high-end cameras have a built in GPS that record the latitude and longitude of each photo. If this was one of those cameras and it had a photo of the owner's home you could find him! If it was I that lost the camera, I would be more concerned about the memory card. The camera can be replaced with a few $100, but the photos of a good tour are priceless. -- David Dermott , Wolfville Ridge, Nova Scotia, Canada WWW pages: http://www.dermott.ca/index.html |

However,Sheldonis in poor health the last I heard so I don't know if that would be him or not??? Nope, not me. My beard is much less impressive than that one these days, an I haven't had that much hair on the top of my head since the 1960 Here's a more recent photo: http://sheldonbrown.org/journal/jour...05.html#051607 However, since I made that photo, I've stopped dying my beard, it's back to light gray. I also stopped shaving my head since wintertime is coming soon, so now my hair is almost 1/4" long.
