First Green Job

Ok, so I'm hitting golf balls the other day and I notice that the putting green at this particular range looks alittle..well...shoddy. So I talk w/ the owner and he agrees to let me paint it. Here's the results. I should mention that I was low on GreenLawnger (the grass dye) so I wasn't able to get it as dark as I'da liked.




Before





After
So-so result imo.

Actually, it was a free-be. I had planned to use pics in my portfolio but not sure I will now.

I think if you're lookin for pics for a portfolio, I'd get before and after from the exact same angle. Know what I mean? You can surely see the difference and it looks good..but I'd shoot the before from the same place I shot the after. It's more obvious that way. Just my 2 cents.

You're rite. Unfortunetly the ones that I did like that were either fuzzy or poorly lit. I shoulda taken multiple (from the same spot) w/ diff camera settings.

Live & learn.

It definitely looks better. I was curious about a job. (our house) I was wondering what you'd charge. We'd want to pay full price though.

#2 is this, we're having a church seminar in Houston on Mem. Day Wknd. It starts at 1 on the saturday. Classes sat afternoon. Classes sunday from 9-11, and church from 11-1. If you're interested in the seminar it's $50 per adult, students $30 but $120 max per family. The website is www.gtrhc.org. If you just happened to be in Houston, the service Sunday morning is free. You could probably go to the sunday morning classes too. The last one was in SA about a year and a half ago and we couldn't afford it, but we went down Sun AM, hit the morning classes and service. Just thought I'd throw it out there.

I don't know yet if we'll be there that weekend, but if we are we'll for sure make the sun service. I'll ck out the web site as well.

SOP for jobs I do for friends & fam is 10% off regular price. I'd be happy to give ya a quote.
