I kept playing with this photo until it had the richness I was looking for.
The original image was dull and underexposed. To bring the life out of it I up'd the exposure, highlights, contrast, saturation and applied a portion of the holga filter script
at the Valdosta State University Chemistry Department's Christmas Party at the Valdosta Country Club.
I decided to use only my Nikon Coolpix S7c to see how it performs in this setting.
A normal bored Friday night! Invited the boys over for a quick pool tournament. I went out first round, and I was the host nation! Unbelievable!

A Batangas ‘Olympic’ altar table
ESTIMATE: PHP 700,000 - 750,000
Mid-19th century
Batangas
Balayong wood, kamagong and lanite inlays, brass hardware
83 x 129.5 x 62.5 cm (32 3/4 x 51 x 24 1/2 in)
Provenance:
Property of the family of Rosita Mercado of Lemery, Batangas
First appearing in Assyrian architecture as a type of decorative running ornament featuring two intertwining bands that repeat in a pattern of crossing intervals, it continued through Greek and Roman culture, then became known in 18th-century France as guilloche, which spread throughout the Georgian period in England. It symbolized unity and eternity. In furniture, these designs were often botanically inspired, appearing as waves, snowflakes, ribbons, and—in the case of this altar table—interlocking rings colloquially called nowadays the ‘Olympic’ motif, referencing the Olympic rings created in 1913 by Pierre de Coubertin.
Placed in the most prestigious spot in the main living room of a colonial home, the family’s venerated santo images were enshrined on top of the altar table; prayer books, rosaries, candles, santo garments, and other important items were stored in its drawers. Made entirely of dark balayong wood (Afzelia rhomboidea), a highly prized rosewood, it features a reddish-brown hue that darkens with age. A solid one-piece top rests on a frame with two smaller drawers above a larger one, all fitted with silver escutcheons and hand-hammered iron drop bail handles, and inlaid with fine borders of kamagong and lanite wood looping below the keyhole and sharply caving at the corners. The Olympic motif, carved in low relief, appears vividly on all four side flanges that taper downward with ogee-shaped extensions, as well as on the front and side aprons, creating a beautifully balanced piece of colonial furniture. Standing on square tapered legs, placing its age fittingly around the middle of the 19th century.

The place setting was all disposable pink and brown items. It included a pink and brown polka dot tissue flower and a hand made notecard for the guest to write advise for the mommy-to-be. These notecards were then collected, read aloud and then placed in an album for future reference.
Last weekend my wife, kids and I drove up to Table Mountain to check out the wildflowers and the spectacular waterfalls. Apparently we missed the height of the wildflower season by a few weeks, and the waterfalls were just a trickle! The wind was a major pain this weekend...it kicked up so much pollen that it took me until about 4am to be able to breathe through my nose. I'm just glad I got to take a few pics when I was there!

On Sunday we went for a hike at a local park. Finn was very excited and wouldn't settle. So we took him to the beach to burn off some steam!
When He gets tired he likes to sit on things off the ground?! (Maybe he thinks there's going to be a flood?!) At the beach he decided the picnic table would make a nice resting spot;)
Btw, this is just before the sun set. That's why the lighting is so golden:)
