Okay, so yesterday was, of course, Software Freedom Day. All over the world user groups and organizations held various events to spread the word and promote the cause. CLUG decided to do it by getting our hands dirty – the challenge to fix the many problems plaguing UCT’s freedomtoaster. Combined with a supply of free pizza and beer and you had the making of an excellent geek party.
I took my camera along and sort of became the semi-self-appointed, unofficial photographer for the event. I took a lot of pictures, the light in the lab was less than adequate and I was forced to use flash. Despite this I didn’t do a great deal of editing, I cropped, cleaned up some backgrounds and made a couple of black-and-white’s but otherwise the pix are as taken – it was the kind of event that speaks for itself in photos.
If anybody wants their originals or a printable-copy please let me know and I’ll get it to you. The pictures include some real gems, but there are some here that are, somewhat below my usual standards as well. The main reason being that I wanted to try and at least post one picture of everybody who was there – where none of the pictures I had of somebody was great, I took the best one and did the best I could with it. Still I managed to take a picture of Jerith with his mouth closed so that’s probably a world-first
