Jeebs on a Shoulder

Originally uploaded by msroest.

Little late on this update, Saturday night I went to Jason’s place to watch the Flames game. We won which was awesome, Brad then brought out Jeebs and Ray. This picture was one I grabbed with the 300mm lense at ISO 100. It turned out really cool you can see some amazing detail in Jeebs head but the DOF made the background pretty blurred which I think made it turn out really cool. After the game was over we headed to the basement and played some pool and darts, and had some drinks. After the games Courtney decided that she wanted to go for Karaoke. We all relented and headed out to a bar that I can’t seem to remember the name of. Courtney the devious minx she is filled out many slips for songs, and we all thought she was really into the Karaoke. How wrong we were, she decided to sign everyone up for something. So at the end of the night I actually ended up on stage with Brad,Jason, and Ian singing Little Bones by The Tragically Hip. By that point of the night however my voice was basically gone by trying to have shout conversations over the music, so I imagine no one in the bar appreciated our presentation. The pictures from Saturday night are posted here.

Sunday afternoon was the CPS Christmas brunch at the Calgary Winter Club with Jeff & Anji, Wes. They had a really good brunch spread and I thing pretty much everyone ate too much. After the meal they gave out prizes to the members who had the highest scores on their prints over the course of the year. I didn’t win anything but that just gives me a motivation to try to bring a print every month in 2006.

Monday and Tuesday were normal boringish days at work, besides Monday night football at Harry’s not alot happened.

Wednesday night however was the CPS meeting for December. I brought this image for judging in the Open category. I got a 7.6 which is not bad and since I was the only Novice Open I won by Default (Woo hoo! Default: the two sweetest words in the English language…). I also brought this one,and this one as exhibition only pictures to show off the results of the smashening. They went over fairly well at the meeting, so we’ll definetly have to do more of these types of pics.

That pretty much brings us upto today which again not alot happened besides working. Tomorrow is Friday which means I have but one week of work left before going on my Christmas holidays, which I can’t wait for.

The weekend is looking pretty busy so far, meeting Deanna and a bunch of other people for The Chronicles of Narnia and then probably meeting Wes to do some portraiture, so he has something to make in to xmas cards/photos.
