Do you have any other hobbies???

[Kerbouchard]

Billiards, poker, tennis, table tennis, golf, firearms(collecting and shooting), and I'm a voracious reader.

Unfortunately, photography is becoming less and less of a hobby. I can't remember the last time I picked up my camera to just go shoot something for fun.

Underwater basket weaving. Doing my crossword puzzles in PEN....

MoT0!

4-wheelin (mostly working on it...)

Competition Aerobatics

A little dirt makes everything more fun...

Shoot'n s**t....

A relaxing hike is always a good time too...

Some shots from my Hiking hobby -- doing some of the Colorado 14'ers...

Mt. Elbert... that is my girlfriend in the distance!

Mt. Democrat - That Pink Shirt in the upper right is my girlfriend, when we were climbing the scree field..

Doesn't sound bad, I actually like the little I heard and will go back and listen some more but it would pay to record it better. As is, it sounds pretty cold. What do you mean by "mostly for my own pleasure"?

It means that I don't take it that seriously anymore. It's fun to record stuff (with my camera) from time to time (and share in few places), and I know that there are many many things that are wrong about my vocal technique. I practice to improve myself whenever I feel like it, otherwise I sing because it's fun and relaxing. =)

Tingel, I forgot that that is also one of my hobbies. I knew I was missing something *insert doh here*

We just had to sell all our horses this summer but I have been riding since I was 12...so for 12 years now. I miss riding!

Beautiful horses! I've always wondered, though, how can anyone ride in jeans?? You must have skin of steel on your thighs.

ATV's have been my passion long before photography, but have taken a break over the last 2 or so years since I picked up a camera. I had just saved up enough $$ to get a Canon 17 TS-E, and decided I was long overdue to fix my broken ATV. It's just been far too long since I've been riding. Now I have a big family trip to the local dunes planned for Thanksgiving weekend :thumbup:

Here are a few from back in my highschool days:

I wouldn't even stop when it got cold :thumbup:

 

[Aayria]

I open up this thread today to see what sort of interesting things people have posted....

And I'm greeted by Bitter posting a picture in SEPIA..... with selective color?!??!?! GAHHHHHHH

 

[tirediron]

I love working on anything mechanical. The older, the better... cars, engines... most of my time goes toward the (licensed) operation and maintenance of our club's two steam traction engines (a 1912 Sawyer-Massey and 1905 Case)...

 

[Ron Evers]

Here are a few samples of my work:


1. Chess board with storage

2. Hickory box with walnut dovetails

3. Candle table, quarter cut oak top with ash base. Top swivels & folds down.

4. Walnut with spalted maple panels.

5. Walnut curio

6. Butternut with walnut panels

7. Quarter cut oak

8. Walnut grandfather.

All the above are my own designs.

I also enjoy cooking & do most of it since I retired.

Wow! Nice work Ron!

What's a plushie? No wait..i'll google it

It's somewhat related to a Snuggie.

Beautiful work, Ron! Have always wanted to set up a shop where I could start learning to do that kind of work.. just have never had the room. Love Wood.. and have built several custom rifle stocks for people from rough-cut blanks. A lot of work!

Do you have any Birds Eye Maple pieces? My favorite!

Here are a few samples of my work:


1. Chess board with storage

No cribbage boards?

 

[c.cloudwalker]

Wow, really nice work Ron. But it reminds me of how much I hate new, modern hardware. Not that I have a shop anymore or time for one but I still keep a couple trunks full of old hardware for when I will have time again

And I love the cat (?) next to the grandfather clock. Is it yours? Do you have a better shot of it?

Beautiful horses! I've always wondered, though, how can anyone ride in jeans?? You must have skin of steel on your thighs.

I always wear jeans, the trick is not to post. the inside seam will wear a hole in the side of your knee faster than you can say "ow". If I'm going to post I wear a nice pair of tights underneath and that works very well.


This kind covers two of my hobbies; I'm learning to play guitar and I like to write, mostly fiction and some lyrics.

I don't have any decent pictures of myself riding, but I love horses and horseback riding.
