Partage de photos sur le Web: clef USB acceptée dans les cybercafés?
by GlobeVelo
This discussion is in French, the community’s main language.
Original post
Bonjour,
dans le cadre d'un tour du monde à vélo, nous abordons la question du partage de nos photos sur le web avec notre famille et nos amis.
Pour cela nous avons pensé à utiliser une clef USB avec technologie U3 (qui peut ainsi être utilisée comme un disque dur externe) afin d'y embarquer un petit logiciel pour reduire la taille des photos avant l'envoi par e-mail ou le telechargement sur notre blog.
Mais finalement on se demande si dans les cybercafés des pays que nous traverserons (Sri-Lanka, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodge, Thailande, Bali, Nouvelle Zelande, Costa Rica) on pourra brancher nos clefs USB sur les ordi (question de securité...)
Quelqu'un a de l'expérience dans ce domaine et pourrait nous faire part de ses commentaires?
Nous avons exclu la possibilité d'emmener un petit ordi portable question de poids, poussiere etc ..dû à notre periple à vélo.
D'avance merci pour votre aide!!

Bonjour,
C'est en effet OK pour Laos, Cambodge, Thaïlande. Par contre gros risques de virus. En théorie il faudrait éviter d'avoir des .exe sur la clef, certains anti-virus bloquent carrément l'accès à la clef ... . Si on a que des .jpg ou .tif il n'y a pas gros danger.
Une solution pourrait être d'avoir 2 clefs, une avec logiciel de retraitement, et l'autre sans. De plus ça assure une bonne sécurité.

Pour l'ensemble des pays indiqués vous n'aurez normalement pas de problème avec votre clé. Dans le cas ou votre clé ne serait pas reconnu par l'ordinateur envoyer par mail le fichier exe, ou stocker le (sur un site fait pour).
"D'ailleurs je m'envoie tjr par mail la copie de toutes mes pièces d'identité"...
Et si cela ne fonctionne toujours pas, la solution de graver sur cd est possible.
Pour des problèmes de virus ou de sécurité effacer bien sur vos photos de l'ordinateur et n'hésitez pas à formater votre clé.
Sa m'est arrivé d'avoir un virus une fois sur un cd gravé, mais j'ai réussis sans difficulté à récupérer mes données, sans infecter l'ordinateur.
Sinon le tranfert de photo peut être un peu long pour les pays d'asie.
++
Bon voyage
ok merci à tous pour vos réponses!
On va donc prendre nos précautions par rapport aux risques de virus et se limiter au partage d'un nombre limité de photos.
et puis c'est sûr qu'on ne souhaite pas passer des heures à télécharger des photos dans des cybers, alors nos amis attendront notre retour...et pour la sauvegarde je pense qu'on va peut être copier les photos sur un Cd et l'envoyer chez nous en France.
Me cri encore pour vos experiences et bons voyages á vous tous!
A bientot

Pendant un voyage précédent (sans PC aussi, les eeePC n'eistaient pas encore), j'avais utilisé un lecteur de mp3 à disque dur: Toshiba Gigabeat F40.
Il est fourni avec une base qui a un port USB. Il suffit de brancher un petit lecteur de carte SD->USB et ça copie toutes les photos de la carte sur le balladeur qui fait 40Go.
Une idée pour éviter les virus et les problèmes de droits d'éxectuer des .exe dans les cybercafés: utiliser la clé U3 avec une distribution Linux dans la partie CD bootable. Je m'explique: la particularité des clés U3 est d'avoir un lecteur de CD virtuel intégré. Donc en fait une partie de la clé (j'ai une 16Go) est réservée à un lecteur de CD virtuel (par exemple 700Mo) et le reste (15Go) est disponible pour stocker des données.
Le lecteur CD peut contenir un système Linux complet avec navigateur Web et logiciel pour redimensionner et mailer les photos (système dit "LiveCD"). Un tel système n'est pas accessible en écriture, il ne pourra jamais être endommagé par un virus !
Pour démarrer sur un tel système, il faut brancher la clé sur le PC éteint et l'allumer, il ne démarre alors pas sur son système habituel mais sur celui de la clé.
Je ne sais pas si cela fonctionnerait dans tous les cybercafés par contre. Et ça risque d'inquiéter le propriétaire de voir un système différent démarrer sur son ordinateur.

Hi everyone,
This isn’t a travel journal. I’m borrowing an idea from someone else who, a few years ago, thought of starting a thread to share their archived photos of this country.
I’ll be posting here from time to time—some less old, let’s say more or less recent, images. With little or no commentary. Just for the fun of it.

Hi,
What software are you using?
I have Magix Deluxe and I’m wondering if there are others that are easy to use where, of course, you can add your own music to the edit. If it’s free, that’s even better so I can test it out 😊
Thanks for your feedback!

Hello everyone!
Photo taken at the end of August off the coast of Tasiilaq (eastern Greenland).
This is that kind of halo surrounding the top of this iceberg (it’s the only one I saw like this out of thousands).
It’s apparently a light diffraction effect combined with moisture freezing above the iceberg.
Estimated height of the iceberg: 30 m.
Have a great day!

Hi,
Does anyone have recent info on the camera fee amount at Tadoba-Moharli? We spent 8 days there in the second half of February, and the local tour operator (The Wild Cat Eyes) collected 2000 rupees per camera per safari without any receipt—totaling 240,000 rupees (~265 €) for 12 safaris (9 in core zones and 3 in buffer zones). The signs at the park entrance listed 250 rupees, and the tour operator ignored our requests for an official park receipt.
Thanks in advance! Pk

Hi everyone!
As a video enthusiast, I took on two challenges: walking all the way across France from north to south and filming the entire journey.
The result shows, first, that this kind of adventure is within reach for anyone, and second, how and where I camped along the way.
There are 53 videos in a single playlist for anyone who loves walking. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8LBGy77HQwpKy4qVakVTykpakdmpeZc1&si=6lHPmpa_00dan8YX
I also loved the daily encounters—nothing but wonderful people who wanted to help.
If you have any questions, I’d be happy to answer! !

Hi there,
I’d like to buy a camera to take with me everywhere while traveling and hiking. My use case: automatic mode only, for travel photos and family moments (meals, etc.). I currently have a Lumix FZ300, which has really let me down—especially in low light. I got some pretty mediocre shots from my last trip, and I definitely won’t be going back there... So, I’d like to replace it. Here’s what I’m ideally looking for: A compact camera, large sensor, decent zoom, and weather-sealed if possible. Any recommendations?
Thanks in advance!

I traveled for a long time with a DSLR equipped with an 18-250mm zoom, but I gave it up two years ago and replaced it with my smartphone, which is lighter and less "intimidating" for street photography. The photo quality is good enough for nice enlargements (up to 80 cm).

Hi everyone,
Since I had a fantastic week in Puglia, and it's such a nearby and easily accessible destination from France,
I invite you to check out the article I wrote about it on my blog: www.philippebasset.com/puglia.html
I highly recommend visiting this coastal region along the Adriatic Sea for so many reasons: diverse landscapes, refined and varied cuisine, a very pleasant climate, a discreet and welcoming population, no mafia (it’s sad to say, but many Italian cities are plagued by this scourge, which brings insecurity, filth, and extortion...), and apart from July-August, there’s no risk of mass tourism!
*Dolce vita* guaranteed!
I’m happy to help if you’d like tips or recommendations :)

And plenty more photos to discover—hopefully, it’ll make you want to book a flight to Bari!

Between COVID waves, our Plan B took us to Venice from Trento. Quite the journey, indeed.
Hardly anyone in the City of Doges. The photos even won me a People's Choice Award at an exhibition in 2023.
And La Fenice... What beauty.

Hi everyone,
I spent a couple of weeks in the Shetlands (Unst, Yell, and Mainland) last October in the north of Scotland. I’m sharing my discoveries from this rarely talked-about destination.

Hey everyone,
I’m sharing a slightly unusual travel journal with three goals. To make it work, this discussion should stay in the travel journal section so we can find it easily and keep adding info to existing posts.
This journal is meant to help "newbies" discover these magical places.
We go to Southern Africa not just for the animals, but also for that soft light, the atmosphere, and those incredible wild campsites where you feel so at home... I’d love for you all to share your favorite spots here—those we miss so much.
The last goal is figuring out how to photograph them. Honestly, I’m not happy with my photos because they don’t capture the feeling I get when I’m there or that unique atmosphere.
I’ll start with one of the first spots that, for me, is one of the most beautiful in Southern Africa: Passarge Valley 2 in the Central Kalahari. There, you’re alone—completely alone. The next campsite is over 25 km away, and that’s a half-day of 4x4 driving. In front of you, there’s nothing but the CKGR plains with herds of springboks... absolutely stunning 😎

3 days in the Camargue... it’s really not enough!
I didn’t know the area before, but the Camargue is packed with "experiences": - Taking the ferry - Walking on the beaches and watching the kitesurfers - Crossing the dike on an electric bike - Horseback riding along the shore - Visiting a *manade* and attending an *abrivade* (cattle roundup) - Exploring Les Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, Aigues-Mortes, or Arles - Touring the salt flats of Giraud or Aigues - Photographing birds at the Parc du Pont de Gau - Watching a bull race and cheering on the *razeteurs* (bull-chasers) - Experiencing a Gypsy evening - Hiking "flat" among the reeds - Tasting bull meat - Relaxing in a peaceful haven - Testing mosquito repellent - ...
Needless to say, we didn’t have time to do it all in 3 days. We’ll be back!
A few tips: - For relaxation: a gorgeous guesthouse, *Le Mas de Bouvet* - For *manades*: the one at Baumelles, with a *Guytou* (herdsman) as warm as he is passionate - For tasting bull meat: *Le Chante Clair* in Les Saintes-Maries - And for birds: the Parc du Pont de Gau
If you’re a photographer, the park lets you stay until 6:00 PM, and afterward, you’re free to leave whenever you want. Those are the best hours for observing and photographing birds. But it’s also where you’ll see massive telephoto lenses that’ll make you feel small if all you’ve got is a small hybrid camera (like my Lumix G80) with a 100-300mm lens.
A few photo memories—starting with the *Manade de Baumelles*:

Hi there,
I suggest we take a little visual trip around the world while we wait to experience some of these destinations on your future travels. 😉
The concept is simple: one country, 5 photos that, for you, capture the essence of that country. The same country can be shared by multiple participants.
Everything goes, and the thread is open to anyone who wants to join—budding photographers, pros, or complete newbies...
Just one rule: no bad vibes! 🙂

Hello à tous,
je pars en voyage en Angleterre et envisage de remonter toute l'écosse en voiture / stop. Je suis photographe semi pro et ayant déjà eu pas mal de déboires en voyage avec mon matériel, j'aimerais bien l'assurer contre notamment les dommages accidentels etc.
deux questions:
- est ce que vous le feriez avec votre assurance maison?
- est ce que vous prendriez une assurance dédiée? et si oui, directement dans le pays concerné?
j'ai vu ce site https://hello-safe.co.uk/camera-insurance
avec des assureurs dédies comme photoguard et assetsure qui m'ont l'air bien surtout pour un voyage longue durée. vous en pensez quoi?
merci bcp

Bonjour à tous et toutes,
Il y a quelques années, j'avais fait cette photo jointe sur l'un des monuments funéraires du cimetière du Père Lachaise. J'avais à l'époque, posé la question de sa signification sur le forum, mais pas vraiment de réponse satisfaisante. Reste mon interrogation, donc je "reviens à la charge " avec cette photo. Merci à tous les chercheurs, connaisseurs... Pour ma part, ce n'est pas le 7 en lui même qui m'intrigue, mais le quadruple sur fond de delta lumineux! Bonne journée
