This year I was lucky enough to have tickets to Opening Day at Fenway Park, and it was amazing! With Pedro throwing out the first pitch, Steven Tyler signing “God Bless America” and of course Neil Diamond signing “Sweet Caroline” oh and I’m pretty sure that the Red Sox beat the Yankees too. Up top is my favorite picture that I worked for a couple hours on. Its the first pitch of 2010 and it took about 6 different pictures to get the right form I wanted. I think Im still going to go in and touch of some areas again. All the pictures I took of the game are below.

A couple of years ago I played around with Grooveshark but never really used it that much. Back in February Lifehacker had a ‘High Five’ for the best music streaming services and since I just installed windows 7 I am going to try and go without installing a media player (other than Zune which I only use for syncing). I decided to try out Grooveshark again. I noticed that on Lifehacker they listed VIP premiums from other sites but left out the VIP features of Grooveshark. I made a comment about this and was kindly gifted a year of premium service from Grooveshark. Some of the major premium features of Grooveshark VIP are Grooveshark Desktop application, mobile application and 50000 songs in your library. I love the Grooveshark Desktop application because it doesn’t require me to have my web browser open but still stream music. This is random ramblings but I thought that it bares mentioning how cool Grooveshark is and how generous they are for giving me a year of VIP service for a simple comment.

This year my mother got a Nikon D3000 for her birthday. Over the past couple of weeks as the weather has gotten warmer I have decided to start messing around with it and taking and editing some pictures. Here are some of the recent pictures mostly close up shots. Let me know what you think!

Today my Google business cards came in the mail! If you missed it early last week Google had a promotion for their Google Profiles that you could get 25 free business cards. So why not sign up when Google is giving away free stuff right? Anyways mine came in the mail today and they are pretty decent, not as durable as my regular business cards, but you can’t really complain when they are free! You can check out my Google Profile here.

Baystate Championship Wrestling is an independent wrestling promotion based in eastern Massachusetts. My good friend Sean used to wrestle with them and is still doing some video work for them. He suggested me to them as a freelance web designer/ graphic designer. Recently I started working on their website. It presented a bit of a challenge since I am not that big of a wrestling fan, so it was interesting researching wrestling promotions and getting that look and feel. As the website is right now it is not “complete”. All the main pages are up and running, however it still needs some graphical items to tie it together. But overall it seems to be working well. You can view the website here.
