West Bend Lakes Golf in December - Please View Large if U have a moment

It is 50 degrees in Wisconsin (at least where I live) and the golfers are out! As long as the ground isn't covered in snow. Once the big snow hits it doesn't melt and then it may be a long time before golfers can go out.

One year on January 1st there wasn't snow but the ponds were frozen (at this very course) and my husband & I had to play the bounce shot off the ice. I bet Tiger never had to do that.

@johntimothy Thank you Pastor John. I looked at the words for the December Word Challenge and thought they look like fun words to work with. A great way to get started too. I can't wait to see your photos!

[John Timothy]

is this a normal shot or did you add a different type of filter, whats the setting you used. this is just a perfect shot

[Kathy Burzynski]

@johntimothy It is an HDR shot. The way you get an HDR shot is by layering or combining two separate shots taken of the same subject (usually on a tripod). There is software you can use to merge the two together. The Nikon D5100 has a nice feature where it will merge two shots together right inside the camera.
