When feeling down and flat like this it’s essential to maintain hydration. For that I use Vimto syrup in hot or cold water. For example, during the day I was using cold water with I’ve blocks added. But now it’s night, I’m on the hot version.
God, what a day. I'm wrecked; sore and tired after suffering a chill and shivering episode earlier in the day. I just couldn't get warm. In desperation I went out to the car and ran the heater on its highest setting for at least 30 minutes.
I ache all over but at least I'm over the chill and shivering.
Yum, Dutch stroopwafels (syrup waffles) softened to convert the hard centre into a slightly gooey syrup by steaming them over to top of a cup of tea or coffee.
@variablepulserate Image Capture can get the Halide RAW pics off the phone onto the Mac. I have used Pixelmator Pro, Affinity 2, GraphicConverter 12 and Photos to play with the images.
@variablepulserate If you haven’t already done so, check out the Halide iPhone app. The latest version adds the ability to choose Process Zero, which disables the normal iPhone photo processing features and takes a single picture only (unless you choose RAW as well).

@matigo I recall paying A$140 20 years ago for a 256 MB CompactFlash caed and that was cheap. About six months earlier Sony released its first 1 GB device, a MemoryStick. It cost A$1500.
More fiddling with the old Olympus camera revealed I had NOT set it up properly to create enlarged images. On the regular SHQ mode I can get up to 185 x 4MP shots on a 512 MB XD card. Now I have successfully dialled in the SHQ Enlarged mode, this maximum drops to 91 x 7MP shots.
Really neat how the elderly 4MP camera can spit out 7MP images.
Out and about yesterday (Tuesday) again with the old Olympus camera. I visited an Urban Forest park, a scrap of bushland created 39 years ago when an old railway line was closed. The park is quite small, around 70 metres wide and 550 metres long. It runs between a busy arterial road and a major highway.
I had been accessing Murasaki on my Mac mini via a Safari site-specific browser (web app), but for some reason it wouldn't allow me to upload photos: the upload button did not respond. The SSB feature came with Sonoma, before that macOS version came out I used an app called Web catalog to create such SSBs. So I recreated Murasaki on Web Catalog and the resulting SSB allws me to upload pics.
