June 11: SP Friday -- Sox It To Me

Rancho Bernardo, CA

Certain of our fellow travelers (Bruce B., and Karen L. for two) are ardent Boston Red Sox fans. Last night MY Padres lost the game and the three game series played at historic Fenway Park.

The good news is that if I were an American Leaguer I would be an enthusiastic Red Sox fan. Thus, it only pains me to some degree that Karen and Bruce can lord the victory over me.

Bruce I promise to pay my bet to you.

The TV image shows Boston Red Sox celebrating their 9 - 3 victory.

Very clever. How you did this is even more impressive. It makes me feel like I'm right there behind you.

It's always a good day when the Red Sox win. And nice to have Nomar back too - great choice of players, Robin!

:) I know a couple other people who had the same grin about the same time. Didn't know games of chance were permitted here. You're lucky! :)

Nice PS work. Sorry that I can't get enthusiastic about baseball, though: over here it's called rounders and is played only by schoolchildren. Give me the footie (soccer to the philistines) and rugby any day! Did your team win or lose, and does it matter? ;-)

Technically this is a 3 part image. The back of my head looking at the TV is the major piece taken while it was still light outside.

I had to take a seperate shot of the TV screen to get the grinning winner and final score later in the evening. I pasted that into a mask of the tv screen.

Finally, my SP taken earlier was made into a reflection by pasting over the glass on the left, desaturated, and modified with a light glass filter overlay. Blending set at about 40%.

Cool picture.

Nice image! Love the reflection in the glass. Hey, what about them Reds? They were doing sooo good. Until they hit the west coast - got slaughtered by the A's. Gave up 40 runs in three games! Yikes!

I love the reflection of the tv watcher's face in the cabinet's glass.
