We knew there was a possibility of showers when we started out onto the course. Sure enough, within the first couple of holes the drissle turned into a downpour, so we briefly took shelter on the porch of a nearby house until the rain stopped.

Three different days, three different colors of green. I think today's is probably the best. The first was too yellow, the second was too green, and this one is in between, though more similar to the first one.

These images conclude the golf series. I finally went shooting yesterday evening, so I'll post a few of those in the next several days.

Did you use umbrella at that time? You don't worry your camera and lens get wet? Too bad that rain is hard to capture but in second shot, rain is visible. Looking forward for your coming photos. ;)

Nice green color, yes, but the whites are completely washed out. Too bad.

Of course, you could also look at it as a weird effect, in which case it wash out is kind of interesting.

Most deffinately, this is the best green color... sad that the game got delayed due to rain...(what am I talking about! I don't even like golf!) but it made for some great pictures.

Only a truly dedicated golfer AND photographer would have both sets of equipment out IN THE RAIN. You are truly a role model!

How can you golf and take pictures at the same time?

I love the top photo, with that glowing green and colorful umbrellas. The only detail that bothers me a little, is the white, empty sky...though it provides an almost "studio" background, I think it would be nice to see some color, even grey...
