I’ve been playing around with Lightroom and Photoshop to help give my photos a little different look. Its really incredible how powerful these tools are to completely change the feel and look of a photo. Below are examples of the same photo after running it through Lightroom and Photoshop.

This past Sunday, I had the opportunity to join the Flores Family on their family trip to the Wild Animal Park in Escondido, Ca. It was their first time visiting the park, so I was sort’ve their guide. With 7 kids to look after, it was definitely a different experience. But one that I thoroughly enjoyed.

I tried to do a blog from my iPhone using the Wordpress App, but for some reason it keeps thinking I don’t have internet connection. Probably a glitch from the jailbreaking.

Anyways, I really want one of these. Seriously. How cool would it be to roll up in one of these on a golf course or at the beach? This thing would be a definite head turner.

Are these flowers real or fake?

I went to the golf range today for the first time in about nine months. As expected, my golf swing sucks. Pounding 180+ golf balls didn’t really help either. In fact, hitting that many balls may have tweaked my back. It’s a little sore at the moment along with my left hand.

In between pounding golf balls, I took a few snapshots. I waited until the sun was setting so I could attempt to capture some flare. This is my favorite pic of the bunch. What do you guys think?
