Oregon 2013 INT Season Underway

June 7th and 8th was the kickoff to the Oregon INT league water skiing season.  The turnout was not spectacular, but every one had a great time.












For Saturday night's pot luck dinner, a lot of the competitors had already left, but the 13 of us that were there had a great time.











Competition was finished about noon and most of us were on the way home as soon as the awards were handed out.

All the pictures for the weekend are now on line.  As usual, I was biased by my family's skiing and the number of photos of them shows it. As in the past, I can provide photographs printed on a professorial Kodak printer, or provide a disk with the selected photos on them.  All the pictures have a time and date stamp on them and are in the sequence that they were taken.  The photo file name is also watermarked on the photo. If you are interested in getting some photos, just email me at this address.

Mint Lake - July 23rd - July 25th

I was planning on being at the USA tourniment in the Medford area over the 9th to the 11th, but due to air conditioner issues and 100 degree weather we didn't make it, so this is our first tourniment of the 2010 season.
Pictures for this weekend can be found at this location.

2010 Season is Here

The 2010 season has arived and it looks like we will miss the last tourniment of the year again as we will be heading back to Michigan again before the beginning of September.  We are looking forward to seeing each and every one of you again this year.

Stop 3 Pictures On Line

Stop 3 pictures are posted and ready to view. We had a memorial service to attend on Saturday, so we left Tug about 11 AM and did not get back till about 6 PM so did not get very many pictures today. This link will take you to the pictures for stops 3 and 4.

All the pictures for stops 1 and 2 are now online and ready for your enjoyment. Click on this link to take a look and select an album to view.

I unfortunately had a bad adjustment on some of the wakeboarders, and they are about 3 F stops too dark. They can be lightened up some with software, and if there is one that you really want, let me know and I will see what I can do.

The following links will take you straight to an individual album.

INT Stops 7 & 8

This was the last weekend before we left for an extended working vacation in Michigan, so the photos taken on Sunday's Stop 8 were limited. For Stop 7, I managed to photograph all the morning ski runs, and since I rode in the boat in the afternoon, I only photographed those who rode behind the Supra.

Since we left for Michigan on Wednesday, the photos are going to be a little bit latter than normal getting posted. Just check back in a few days.

Sabrina USA Tournament - Sunday August 10th

Over 1300 photos taken on Sunday should be on line by Wednesday night late. I was a little more confused, as I hadn't seen a starting order and several of Saturdays competitors didn't compete, plus a couple that hadn't did. I captured 32 skiers and I think that I got every one. I was a little tired, as I was experimenting a bit. I shot the outbound from the lakes edge out from the 3 ball heading North, and the inbound from the top of the ladder out from the 4 ball heading South, so I was up and down the ladder over 50 times, plus scurrying between spots on the ground.

After you look at the pictures, if you could take the Sunday poll about which ones you liked best, I would appreciate it. Just trying to find out what is the best way to go for next year. Keep in mind that the morning sun gave better facial looks when skiing back. I'm looking more for composition thoughts.

Again, take a look as the 32 skiers slide show, and any help with names that I might have wrong or miss spelled would be appreciated. Just E-mail me.

Sabrina USA Tournament - Saturday August 9th

Today I photographer 36 skiers and took just short of 2000 photos. I photographed about half of the pictures in the portrait mode. After you take a look at the pictures, if you could mark Saturdays poll, I would appreciate it. The pictures should be on line at this site by August 13th.

The slide show is of each skier in the order that I photographed them. I believe that I have the right name on each of them. If not, e-mail me and let me know, and I will correct it. I took pictures of 36 skiers and don't think that I missed any one.
