She was playing hurt, halfway through the game a wild pitch hit her upper arm and took her out of it for a while. The good of this is that it pissed her off so much that she took it out on the ball. Adding to her teams awesome effort by smashing the ball to deep center bringing 2 RBI’s and a double.

It all came down in the 7th. Score was tied 6-6. The opposing coach had walked our #1 batter to load the bases. Lucky came up with 2 outs and took 2 strikes. The next pitch was on fire and caused a hush to come over us all. Except Lucky, that ball was met with the swing of the season and knocked directly at the shortstop who wanted nothing to do with it. The ball continued past the left fielder coming to rest deep in the outfield. This brought in three runners ending the game with a walk-off.

Being 100% boy, he headed right for the mud.

We were on vacation and she was playing with these swim goggles. She let me put them on her just long enough to take the photo.

This is a composite of three bracketed images that I processed in Photomatics. Though not perfect (I’m still learning to learn photography), I thought it came out well.

I didn’t do much with the colors, just cropped and darkened it a bit. It was too bad that the car was parked in front of the house else it would have been a much better photo.

About a mile or two from where we were staying was this power plant right next to the coast. I must have snapped 200 shots using different settings and whatnot. This was the result of 3 images merged and the colors tweaked a bit.
