While doing the Journey Into Africa Tour a couple of weeks ago at W.A.P, we had a brief encounter with this little guy on the trail. He was actually “outside the fences” so I’m not really sure he was part of the attraction. Nonetheless, he gave us a great photo opportunity.

I met up with my brother-in-law Ramel and nephew Tobey at the golf range after lunch today. Tobey is pretty active in different sports like gymnastics, swimming, tennis, karate and of course, golf. I took some pictures of his swing and finally had the opportunity to use the 6.3 fps (frames per second) of the 50D. With the exception of wearing two gloves (my dads influence on him), he’s not doing to bad.

Tiger Woods in the making? I think he’s heading in the right direction.

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.
