Ocean City

I went to Ocean City, NJ yesterday and took some pictures in the late afternoon. I shot these pictures around 5th and 6th street with the exception of the last one.

Both of these pictures are from Wonderland. I wanted to shoot some of the rides but keep the backgrounds clean. The only way to do that was to shoot up and use the sky as clean background.

I like this shot but I think it would be better later in the day when the ferris wheel is lit up and the sky is more colorful.

These rocks are part of the jetty around 5th street. They are part of a long term project I have been working on.

I saw this bird in the wetland near the 34 street bridge. I stopped because the bird looked like an eagle from the car. When i got out I realized it wasn't an eagle but a hawk (at least i think its a hawk.) I didn't realize until i loaded the picture up on my computer that the bird is holding a fish it just caught in its talon.

Summer League Soccer

Playoffs started for the Pitman Soccer sumer league. Both Pitman teams made it to the playoffs. I was able to make it to the last game and make some pictures. The first team won, the second team lost.

If it weren't for the player in the background this would have been a much better shot.

This picture has the same has the same problem as the one earlier with people in the background.

I was having trouble trying to get the color right in this one. For whatever reason ever time I shoot at the Dell I always have trouble with the color. After playing with the white balance and other color settings for a few minutes i got annoyed and made it black and white.
