AN AUTUMN BOUTONNIÈRE

"An Autumn Boutonnière" (ss-3 10-15-19[35]) was just edited slightly from an old version of an even older pic of mine. (Technical Rant Alert! Skip to orange text at end if you're not interested ...) In this case, that number 35 in brackets does not indicate how many previous versions I've made, but is just saying how many screen shots that day I'd made of different pix of mine ... Go figure, I'm beginning to have quite a time of it ... The Windows 10 photos program slaps a number on at the end of the file name of a pic, no matter what it is I've done to it. I suppose once done working on a pic I could then modify it's title to suit me (get rid of these pesky numbers?). Eh! Something to think about. However, should I decide to do it, not only will I then have to remember to do it all the time (good luck at my age!) but how will I tell over time which sort of numbering is applicable? (Sequential versions of an individual pic, or overall total of that day's varied screen shots?) ROTFL! Why do I even care? As long as I can find a pic based on a file name is all that really matters. And, even more so -- ROTFLMAO -- the reason I'm doing so many screen shots is I don't have the file names for a great many of my old pix that I'm running across in my paper files and on the computer. So, I screen shot it, and it winds up with a new file name. Yep, duplication of images on my computer, but I've got ready access to the pix and maintained my sanity. In the past, I've gone through the craziness of going through computer folders of pix going back to 2008, amounting to pix in the thousands, hunting for some old pic. Ain't about to do that agin' if'n I kin possibly avoid it. Yikes! What a tirade for what must sound like a little thing ... Oh, and today's pic? I like that autumnal feel to it. It's closer to black and white in its earlier version, but I felt it needed some warming up today.
