SOCCER AWARDS NIGHT

Whatever happened to clever titles? I couldn't think of any tonight. Functionality won over creativity... but just this once. Let's not get too efficient just yet.

Long time no blog. I've been busy!
It is good to see you again.

I wasn't going to bring my camera to the Brighton Grammar soccer presentation night last night, because I generally don't spend my energy taking photos at such events. I don't like being that person pointing a lens in everyone's face (I know I always am). Live in the moment and all the rest of it. But in the end I was sorta glad that I took it along.

Here are some of the better shots.













James managed to pull in the most awards of the night. Two of them to be precise. It doesn't matter what the awards were for, just that they were awards. Congratulations Mr McConnachie! He received a trophy and a beautiful *gag* purple dress. And he also ranked number six out of the top ranked look-alikes.
His match was Matt Preston.

I... I don't see it.











Kenshiro received a best and fairest award for his efforts during the season. The trophy is of relative size, colour and (implied) material to its recipient, and stood in for Ken in many a photo during the rest of the night.























Our after party venue of choice was Dendy Deli. That counts... right?

JUST DANCE

So ah, just got a program off the internet that rips DVDs and so I thought I'd put up the full birthday video that Karina and I made for Min-Yee's 18th last year as requested by a couple of people.
Ok so it's not really the FULL video, its just the main section. Intro message, back-end birthday messages and outtakes have not been included because I had to reduce the file size significantly, as you will see shortly.

I think this would have to be THE WORST quality I've seen in an online clip EVER. So many lost frames, so many glitches, and if it plays the same as on my computer, the sound is slightly out of sync with the visuals. I promise the whole thing matched up perfectly in the original - Karina can vouch for that. *sigh*

Such a shame.

Apologies.




(Yep! just checked it, it's about 1.5 seconds out of sync by the time it reaches the end. Terrible.)

SPORTING GREATS

One weekend full of sporting photography requests.

Cricket with Christopher Robin.














Soccer with Simon (and James and Tim and Ken... but mainly Ken). Funny that there aren't any photos of Simon here... we'll tag him anyway.










And basketball with... Brady? Kate Hardman's last match in our basketball team that dates back to the early days of our time at Firbank. BOLTS.
