YAPC::EU 2003 Photos

emperor's new clothes

The photos for YAPC::EU::Paris are finally on-line. There were over 400 photos which I trimmed down to 275 which I then weeded to 80 with thumbnails. The venue was difficult to get really good pictures since the lighting was dim in most of the lecture theatres and I didn't want to use a flash during the talks. Also, I had a new camera, the Canon 10D which replaced my Canon D30, which seemed to have a intermittent problem with backfocusing. Canon has yet to acknowledge this problem but I've used AF with all my Canon cameras and haven't ever had a problem so I'm hoping they fix it soon. So...I'm sorry there aren't as many really nice shots as I had expected.

  • I tried to get pictures of everyone. If you don't see yourself anywhere, please don't take it personally.
  • If you'd like a copy of the original JPEG from the camera, send ONE email with the IMG_* filename(s) [ I kept the iPhoto filenames just for this purpose ] to eashton at mac dot com and I'll send them to you. Please note that these are large files so if you can't take a 1.5mb file in your inbox, tell me and I'll put it somewhere on the web for download.
  • Do send me corrections and additions for names. I am utterly awful with names so please don't be offended if I have forgotten or misspelled your name.
  • Feel free to share them.

There are a few different ways you can view and/or obtain the pictures:

Thanks again to the Paris.pm for hosting such a terrific conference and I hope the photos live up to your expectations :) I'll be sending a CD with the raw images on them to you.

It has also occured to me that I'd like to archive many of the photos from the conferences over the years in the history.perl.org archive so if you've got photos you'd like archived, make a tarball and send me an URL where I can download them. :)
