Ladies Golf, 2008: Day 1
Monday, August 25, 2008 at 5:50PM This is the fourth year of what I have come to call "Ladies Golf" which is basically a three-day golf excursion. Myself and Jason are invited along to drive, take pictures and be the muscle (although this year three other husbands joined in to share the burden.) This year we revisited the Niagara Falls area, playing at Thundering Waters and Whirlpool. However our first game started off early Friday morning at Parkview in Markham.
Parkview Golf Course has two 18's: the Valley Course and the Upper Course. While we usually play the Valley course, on this day we played the Upper course. The Upper course has a dual personality, each one separated by railway tracks.
After our game we went for lunch and then met to form our car pools.
En route to Niagara Falls we stopped off at a couple of wineries, including Wayne Gretzki's No. 99 Estate Winery in Vineland Ontario.
After checking in to the hotel and dinner we watched the fireworks display.

Oh wow, what kind of equipment/settings did you use to capture those amazing fireworks shots?
Thanks,
I used a tripod and a Leica D-LUX 3 with the following setting
Exposure: 8 sec
Aperture: f/8
Focal Length: 25.2 mm (about 110 mm equivalent)
ISO Speed: 100
The pictures were captured in RAW format and processed through Aperture.
