Distractions [s]
Scene It
Ty and I cleaned up on Saturday. Three comeback victories in a row against the roomies and their girlfriends.
Mud football
Jon organized a match of mud football. There was much more of the former than the latter; the completion:interception ratio was somewhere around 2:1. Sure the ball was slippery, but the predominant reason had to be that we were running nothing but fly routes on account of not being able to cut. Well, that's not entirely true, Erik and I sported cleats whose advantage declined as the grass turned to mud. Everyone else... well they brought the proverbial knife to the gun fight.
Fantasy football
Next week will be straight out of Genesis. Kevin takes on Brian, and I'm playing Jon. Let's hope the older brothers fare better than they did in the elder vs. younger Wiilympics all those months ago. But what's there to worry about with Wayne against Oakland and Moss against the Jets? That's seven tds right there.
Mass Effect
Bioware did a really good job here. KOTOR was awesome, but comparing it to Mass Effect is like comparing Mario 3 to Mario 64. Both great games in their own right, but the sequel adds so much depth that all you can really say is they're the cream of their respective generation. Elaborating on this would be difficult to put into a reasonable number of words, so let me just say that it's a great game to lost in.
VR4 photo session
I finally got out with the car and camera for a quickie shoot to play with the ever-so-difficult auto photography and hdr. The car is lots of fun and you wouldn't imagine how much free boba I've gotten.
The bottom shot is a single exposure. The top is a hdr merge of several. The most readily noticeable difference is the detail on the overpass.

You are going to lose. Older brothers always get beat by the younger one.

yah. i second that!
is there any way to remove the orangish tint on those car photos? It's a tad bit too orangy and distracting. esp since your car looks so nice in its natural coloration. =) HDR comes across very subtle.. but since you pointed out where to look, it does come across better. Now how much time did it take? Weigh the amount of effort vs the improvement.
