Adelaide Universities Judo Challenge

Hello all!

I have been taking a lot of photos over the weekend which have now been edited. I am in the process of uploading them to 500px and then selecting a few to blog.I was considering a pro account on Flickr since I had reached my limit but instead I got a plus account on 500px as it was cheaper. I like the interface a lot and there are a lot of really good photos being shown. You can now check all my photos out at http://500px.com/Nudelbutt . It will include photos that I do not feature on my blog posts. I will stop adding EXIF information to my blog posts as they can be found on my 500px site.

On Saturday, there was a university challenge event at my Judo club for which I had not put my name down for as I had not been training regularly due to exams. I was planning to just spectate and take photos but my senior had other ideas and told me to change into my gi to participate in some matches. I was beaten a couple of times (once by a lower grade yellow belt!) and I beat a couple of the lower grades.

I have a lot more photos to post but I'll leave it for another time as I want to sleep. Working with 500px is proving to be a bit difficult at the moment so I will need to integrate that into my workflow somehow (I couldn't upload pictures from there onto blogger).

Ciao for now!
