Goonies are good enough and cheap enough. Got this Bluray for only $9.83 at Walmart today.

Might as well start blogging again. I’ve been quiet too long. I’ve got this darn site, so I should be doing something with it.

Carol and I both had the tough job of lounging about on a ski boat on a beautiful Sunday this summer. What a great time we had. Here’s a slideshow of the photos I took for the recent BC Wakeboarding Championships:

Thanks to Rick and Wendy of Riggit Services Inc. for having us out.

That was fun… Nick and Lorne came over with pork chops. Carol made some blueberry grunt and I shot some timelapse.

Oscar is in the foreground being his calm and adorable self. Donner is in the background being a smartass clown, also as per usual.

These are some sorely disappointed Canucks fans. We were watching on the jumbo outdoor screen at Hamilton and Georgia during the first period of game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final 2011 against the Boston Bruins. The Bruins had just scored their first goal at this point, but those are some sad faces. It got worse… ugh

Shaw Tower Tilt Shift

I took this photo from the balcony outside the 9th floor lunch room in Shaw Tower with my new camera. I am very happy with the Nikon D5100. I still have lots to learn, but for the price point I couldn’t turn it down as my first DSLR. Carol’s already got one but this is the first one I have to drag around with me.

The tilt shift effect is an in camera effect. I like “in camera” better than buying an expensive lens or having to do it in post. It doesn’t look as faked.
