French Homework & Whales Beached

While geocaching in Athens, GA, in search of crossing off Clarke County, we came up to an old abandoned railroad bridge, there sat a UGA student doing her French homework. She noticed my camera and offered to move, but I said, “Stay where you are, it’ll add to the photograph.”

My Fantasy Football Team is no longer undefeated. The Purple Whales scored a very tidy 110 points this weekend, but my opponent has scored a 148. My only hope for victory is he has the Baltimore Ravens defense, and if the New York Jets can score about 15 touchdowns in the second half of tonight’s game, it might bring that defense’s score to -12 and create a loss. Hey, they don’t call it Fantasy Football for nothing.

Started up, went down, still down.

300 vs Dragon

We got a couple of photographic souvenirs from our trip through the gap, so it is only fair that the Canadian Cousins get a couple too.

Shopping Sunset

This is what the sky looked like last night when Donna and I came out of Kroger. Even though we had some frozen food items in the trunk we drove around for a while looking for places to stop and take more photos of the orange, purple and black sky. Didn’t find any, and the longer we drove the less exciting the sky became. I guess we had to have been done shopping about 15 minutes earlier…

Crater Lake Panorama

I know, I know, I should have used a tripod and I should not be zoomed to my widest angle lens setting, but at least I managed to get a series of photos, unlike my failed attempt at the swinging bridge later on on the trip…

Gone Fishing

I captured these two people fishing under the I-20 bridge that crosses the Savannah River while we were out fishing on land for ammo cans. It a very hazy morning so that the original was very high key, so I ran it through an HDR program and chose Ultra contrast. Click on the image above to see the original.

Gobble Gobble

The other day I posted my favorite picture I took at Saturday’s MMC event, but here is my favorite one taken by someone else: The Turkeys of Edgefield
