What was I thinking?, originally uploaded by CJ's Camera.

I finally printed my photos from my first 365. When I got them printed they were out of order so I needed to go through all of them to get them organized! I missed 5 photos, and still need to get labels. I am going to number them, and have what I wrote that day on the back.

HDR Homework - 45 of 365


HDR Homework, originally uploaded by CJ's Camera.

We had to take HDR (High Dynamic Range) images for our assignment. I am not a really big fan of these photo's because the of the tones, and they tend to not look real. The watermark on the photo is from the trail software that I used, called Photomatix. I was pretty happy with how this image came out.

This is why..., originally uploaded by CJ's Camera.

This is why I play Disc Golf. There is nothing better than getting up early in the morning and going out to play when no one else is on the course. Plus it is just nice to be outside. And we have had some great fall weather!

The county has purchased this land to use as a park, and today they held a preview to show it off to the public. I met with a few people involved to try and incorporate disc golf within the park, but didn't get any real good feedback. Oh well got to keep on trying. Next, Public Hearings.

Keeping Score - 12 of 365


Keeping Score, originally uploaded by CJ's Camera.

Keeping score during a round is not always the easiest thing to do. I have tried an iPod App, and three different score cards. But the one on the top left seems to work the best. The typed version is from a Google Doc, and it is where I keep all of my scores.
