SBJPG – Battles of the Saints (Roller Derby)

Last Saturday’s SBJPG shoot out was Santa Barbara’s own Roller Derby Team Brawlin’ Betties vs Santa Cruz Derby Girls.  Structure of the shoot was simply an event photography, but I have never been to one of these before and had the grooviest time taking photographs. I hope rest of the SBJPG members had a good time as well.

Little rain was falling down on us just as the bout started.  SBJPG member john pulled out this bright blue poncho protecting his gear and himself and said, “I’m a nature photographer, I am prepared”.  Likely, the rain stopped after about five minute.  The bout continued.

McEnroe would be saying, “YOU can not be serious!”

John and Martin were on the ground shooting, and Carolyn was shooting from back somewhere…  (comfort of her own chair)

Accident happens.  Intense moment.

ねえ、これって、ひどい訳ですね。困っちゃいます。何を言いたかったのかと、いうと、IMPORTANT NEWS ABOUT OUR NEW SPONSOR “EDHAT”.
Do you guys know about Edhat? http://edhat.com/ They are, I like to call it, a new breed of sponsor.  They function bit differently from conventional so-called ‘sponsor’ because they are not giving us any ‘things’ per se, but they are offering us to take advantage of their outlets.  What it means is that it is an advertising opportunity for your business as well as SBJPG.  They (Edhat) know it’s good for them.  More info?  Crick here. (I meant click)　とまあ、こうなりますか。

SBJPG NEW WORKSHOP

Yet another Adobe Photoshop Workshop, 3rd one on the bookmaking with basic digital imagery workflow.  Here‘s the meat, and this one here is one of my favorite book because it was as much about the book as about the boy, the young artist.  Making this book was very rewarding, and exposed to those eyes of a young artist was inspiring.  I believe SBJPG can do as equally positive work as well.

One Friday evening for two hours and you will learn basic workflow of BOOKMAKING from image selection to creating camera ready image files (using Adobe Image Editing Softwares), plus basic understanding of using templates to make your own book (portfolio).

Photoshop and Fun Book Making $22.00
Friday, Feb 25th, 6:30pm – 8:30pm
Bring your image files with your laptop.

My family called me to report that my father is going to a hospital for a surgery next day. I think I am more nervous than they are… but then again, what do I know? They maybe just putting up a good front (so that I won’t worry).
