Skate Boarder

Well I could not let my pal Rich out do me. He posted some photos on his blog, http://richfiddelke.blogspot.com/ , showing some photos from our Saturday photo walk. He gave me a good idea after we photographed some skate boarders in Seymor park. He said they would make great black and white pics so here is my attempt. Hope you like them.

Cars and Bikes

Last nights car show at the Flashback was huge. Great bunch of cars and some really tricked out bikes. Took three of my grandkids and they had a ball. The people there with their cars and bikes are really nice people. They let my grandkids sit in their cars and on their bikes for pictures. I will just post a couple of pictures here and you can go to http://occ.smugmug.com/Gary-Prill/Cars-and-Parts/18155674_mC4hnh#P-1-12 .

Cox Classic Final Day

Worked my little hiney off chasing the potential winners around on Sunday. There were five players in four groups changing places all day. The winner J.J. Killeen finally made two putts from 90 feet for par to clinch the top spot. Great golf tournament. Here are some piics from the last day.

Cox Classic third round

The heat and humidity returned for the third round of play at the Cox Classic on Saturday. The players were heating up the course also. At the end of the day the leader, J.J. Kileen was 20 under par. Sunday will be cooler which should let the players get even hotter. Here is some pics. Thanks for stopping by and please visit www.prill.zenfolio.com .

Cox Classic Day Two

Well the weather forecasters got this day all wrong. They said that the clouds would move out and get partly sunny by noon. Never happened. Cloudy all day. So these pics are not the best. By the way most of what I have been posting about the golf tournament are SOOC (straight out of camera) except for a little cropping and color correction in Lightroom. I will admit that one of these today had a little extra help. See if you can tell which one. I will let you know at the end (no cheating).

Ok it is the one before the last one. I added a little blue to the sky because it was such a crappy looking day. The players are gonna get real serious these next two days.

Cox Classic Golf

Started photographing the Omaha Cox Classic Nationwide golf tournament this week as a volunteer. It costs $45 to volunteer (what?) but it is all for charity. They provide you with a shirt, hat and food everyday plus a volunteer party at the end. So it is not a bad deal all in all.

I did a pro-am shoot on Monday and Wednesday. Just taking the group shots before tee off. Wednesdays pro-am had some high mucky mucks playing. Both Mayors from Omaha and Council Bluffs played in the same group. Later found out the Mayor from Council Bluffs lost a club. Geez our Government in action. Also playing on Wednesday was the Governor of Nebraska. A very nice man and really everyone that comes out to the tournament are real nice people, both Pros and spectators.

Tuesday I shot the kids clinic. this is where about a hundred bzillion kids come out to get some pointers from the pros. This is probably one of my favorite events. The kids are just great to watch.

Anyway here are some pics I took. Hope you enjoy them and I will post more later if I get some interesting shots. Thanks for stopping by and check out www.prill.zenfolio.com .
