Last Image

[jjeling]

The golf season here in Toledo is pretty much over with now. It is barely getting above 40F or roughly 5C in your terms. Golfers are done, trees are changing color, and my job there is about done.

On a side note, I gave the club a written proposal after our conversations and they havent said anything since. So, I am going to write that one off. Kind of sucks, but I have the images they want. Chances are I wont be returning next year so they know how to contact me if they decide they really want them. At least I have enough of them now and my work is done.

Anyways, this is probably one of the last images Ill take of the course. It is starting to wear on me and I need to get back to what photography is about. Let me know what you guys think.

OOOh I like this one JJ!
Wicked cool HDR!

[jjeling]

Its not HDR at all actually. Just some slight level adjustments, dodging, and burning, voila!

Great! I just love the vibrancy of this shot, JJ. The only tiny distraction is the lens flare in the clouds. Not sure if a lens hood would help here as you are shooting into the sun. Great shot though.

[Bambi]

I love this one. perhaps you can clone out the flare.

it sucks that all your hard work is not paying off. if it's like the golf club here it just could be that they are disorganized and will be getting back to you. It's hard to believe they wouldn't want these shots. Unless they are planning to take their kodak point and shoot and think they can get the same results!

They certainly had a wonderful situation with you on their team! I am sure they will miss you and what you brought to the table, JJ.

As for this image - i really like it. One thing that my eyes have trouble with are the trees that are pretty black. Maybe too much saturation for them? I do like the over all saturation though.

Good luck on your job search!
