Shoot 2022-08-27-073401

I am trying out a completely new photo workflow involving Lightroom Classic and Topaz Labs software. Perhaps that warrants a blog post. I tried re-processing some recent photos, and I also had a nice session on the water with some Grebes.

The water level at the lake was quite high for this time of year, and I was able to get right down near the water's edge. Both Clark's and Western Grebes were occasionally surfacing near me, and it was overcast but the light was mostly coming from a good direction. It was a really cool experience waiting by the water for these birds to appear.

The above hashes-<date>.txt file contains SHA-256 hashes of all the photos from this shoot. The hashes-<date>.txt.sig is a signature of that hashes file, created with my PGP key. The signature file itself was written to both the Bitcoin Cash and Algorand blockchains, in the OP RETURN and Note fields respectively, using the transactions below. In short, this proves that these photos and the signature both existed at the time the transactions were written to the Bitcoin Cash and Algorand blockchains. This blog post has more details.
