Jim…where’s the hot women pics? Or is that for another site? ;)
Jim – or anyone – do you use a filter on some of these great pics?
Jon … we’ve saved them for the porno-version of the OB Rag, but we’re not sexist so we have hot photos of all sexes. It will be published in the cumming days a head.
I didn’t think the internet allowed pornography.
In all seriousness, these are some fantastic shots Jim. I love the lifeguard tower one and it just might be my new desktop….
Glad you like them…I have a polarizing filter I use on occasion….We live in a beautiful area the natural canvas provides plenty of chances for beautiful shots. I just point n shoot…..
jim g … well, so do a lot of people – just point n shoot – but yours turn out wonderful. did you use that filter on the life guard station shot?
bodysurferboob – yeah, look at the results everytime a certain OB RAg writer/photographer grabs his camera …
Nope no filter on that shot…the sun was obscure enough did not think i needed it and for once I got it right…..
Which one do I prefer? Like one is the best and the rest are just incredibly kick-ass? Your challenge is too hard for me Frank, I quit.
Awesome shots Jim!
There’s not a bad shot in there, nice work Jim G, good eye too! ;)
Very nice indeed!
Jim,
I watched your slide show at Tower Two and very interested in getting a copy,
great photos. Please contact me for information on a copy
Thank you
