Have to go to the bathroom during a movie...

This is an interesting site I heard about, called RunPee.com. Yep, there is a website for everything! If you ever wanted to know when a good time during a movie to run and go pee, then this site is for you. What if you don't want to miss a crucial scene, and you are always wondering would this be a good time? Should I go now, or wait until after this scene? Well, look up your movie here and it will also tell you without spoiling the plot. So have no fear and order that LARGE 44 oz Coke (as well as buttery popcorn) and you'll be fine if you check this site.

5th 3rd River Bank Run

Amanda and I ran the 5k 5th 3rd River Bank run. Race started at 7:30 am sharp and we lined up in the 10:00 min mile mark. We were lucky it didn't rain on us until after we finished. Poor 25 k'ers got the rain! I am waiting for my race results, I don't think I beat my time, but we'll see.

This was a large race and the best turnout they have had. Over 16,000 people raced, about 38,000 watched (I counted them as I ran, I was bored), and 2,000 volunteers. According to WOOD TV, this is the largest 25 k races in the nation, but I think I will stick to 5k and 10ks.

Here are some photos taken by Keith with the zoom lens. Glad i gave him the zoom, because he was sitting in bleachers at the finish line along with Jason. I am in the pink shirt and black pants with the pink stripe, and Amanda is on my left behind me in the 3/4 length gray pants. CLICK ON PICTURES FOR LARGER IMAGE.

HDR photos - Daytona Beach

Shot with my Canon Rebel XT. All of these pictures were taken with my Sigma 10-22mm Wide Angle Lens, my fave lens! I shoot in Raw format, and have a process of turning them into HDR (High Dynamic Range) images. I import them into Adobe Lightroom and color process here and there. Then I create 5-8 different exposures of the same picture and export. I then import my different exposed files of the same image into Photomatix and start tone mapping the image. Click on a picture to see a larger image, because the small preview doesn't do it justice. My favorite is the last one.
