Salmo Magyar Kupa 2008

A fishing Tournament in Rinyaszentkiraly at the lake where we usually go fishing.
We have been at the first one in 2006 and it was fun.

Am there this year to take pics. Not as much fun without hubby, but it’s alright.

Friday is preparation day. Here are some shots.

Some more shots can be found on my flickr account (Yes, I went back there) - for the ones interested.

Fishing tournament

by NicoleB Email

There’s a fishing tournament at the lake in Rinyaszentkiraly this weekend.
I don’t think I’ll go. I was. But it’s raining and I don’t feel like testing my cameras new rain cover.
Plus, I feel a bit lost without hubby there.
Oh well….will keep working on some new products in my zazzle gallery. That’ll keep me happy :)
I’m going through a bunch of old files and revamp some, delete others, clean up my External HD to make more room for new stuff. Do a long overdue Backup when finished with that (in 4 weeks or so….).

What are you up to this weekend?

Not the greatest eclipse shot ever, but hey, short notice and a camera which doesn’t like low light ;)

Shot with a Casio EX-P505 and a Raynox Telephoto lens, using a chimney as a tripod and freezing my butt off :P


Here’s one from Hungary 2006
, a tad better.

First sunrise 2008.
Not a spectacular one, but I always love the first one.
I “celebrate” my New Year end of October with the last full moon or depending on how it comes with the first one in November (maybe I’ll explain that one of these days), but the old tradition of New Year is still in my bones it seems :)
It’s a hazy morning, too warm almost after all these cold, fresh and chilly days. One of those where you wear a jacket and get cranky because you feel too warm. But going without it would just mean getting a cold.
Oh well, I’ll live ;)
I was too lazy to go and catch it from the beach - shame on me - so here is the lazy version of 2008ths first sunrise in Kuwait in Mangaf ;)

So, did you all celebrate last night?

We went to bed at 8.30, caught a glimpse of New Zealand, Australia, Japan and China before we went. And some preparations for the 60 seconds of fame in New York.
I don’t know, you could pay me money to go there, I wouldn’t.
Being in a crowd of 1 million people?
Nope, those days are over for me, am just not a crowd person, never really have been.

Well, I hope you all have a fun day without any hangovers (that’s what I always hated about the first day of the year - how can a year become a good year when you feel like shit on the very first day?) and a good start into 2008!!!
