I thought I had downloaded the pictures from my camera’s SD card to my computer, and then I deleted them from the SD card. But I was in a rush, and so I can only assume I never did copy them to my computer, because they’re nowhere to be found (I search my hard drive). It was 3 weeks of personal family photos and work related photos lost from dates in the first week of July to the last week of July. I only noticed a few days ago. Is there any way to get them back?
