Snowboarder GIF and Ski Album

The last time I made GIFs it was such a huge hit... so I made just one out of a set of images from our ski trip earlier this month.

You can view all of the other pictures from the trip on my Facebook album (it's public).

This guy was just a random boarder who kept doing jumps by me while I was stationed to take pictures of my cousins and friends.

Snow Day and GIFs

I took my last final at Crowder yesterday, and I picked up two of my cousins, Kendra and Bretton on my way home. My neighbor, Rachel, also came over; and the four of us had a blast... blasting each other with snowballs ;P ...and sledding.

Then we tried a few things to add some excitement... like riding a lawn wagon down the hill. Well, that failed. It didn't go fast at all. So then we built a ramp...

So there is our makings of the ramp... gathering snow and patting it down.

Bretton... always known for his facial expressions! :)

This was my first time going down... so my camera was passed off to the others to take pictures.

I look like I'm about to launch off of this earth or something. Lol

I have quite a few animated GIFs included in this post because we took soooo many pictures :)

Many thanks to Josh for hooking me up with Photoshop again so that I could make them!

Poor Rachel... she said this one hurt pretty bad! :/ But she was a really great sport!

 His face on the last frame of this one cracks me up... it looks exactly like the "weary face" emoticon. 

Oops! A little trip-up on the ramp! Haha

Yeah, I'm not sure what happened here, haha, but it's something to laugh about anyway! ;D

He landed it! o.O

It was a bunch of fun, both taking pictures and ramping!

Well, enjoy your weekend! 

If you are a college student, enjoy your month break off of school!

And if you live in my area of the country, get ready to enjoy the snow/rain we are supposed to get tomorrow! :)

Jumping Action

Finally! Here is the post; I was dealing with a sloooowww computer. 

I've always wanted to make and animated GIF, and I hope to make one for

my blog header -- eventually. 

So here's my shot at it -- using 120 pictures. It's nothing spectacular; and it
will probably take an eon or so to load depending on your connection.
Actually, it might just need to play through once until the timing is right.
Comment and let me know how it loaded for you.

Since I don't have a remote yet I had to tape a little

rubber button over the shutter-release. I just tightened the

tape to make it start firing. (the DIY way when my mom thinks 

you've spent enough money and should save things for her 

to get me for Christmas, haha)
