East Coast Chowfest 2008 Photo Gallery
Here are some of my pics from today. These are unedited, hopefully they're sized correctly. Sorry there are so many (and this is with restraint! ). I can't wait to see everyon'e pictures.
Here is the amazing cake that Titus' mom and dad brought. It was as yummy as gorgeous!
Cutie pie Paz
T-Bone relaxing. Isn't he super handsome?
SD, hubby and I
Handsome Kuma. I love this picture of him.
T-Bone smiley face chow. Is this guy photogenic or what?
Jade and Nanook's mom with Jade, Nanook, Paz and yummy chicken!
On the left side going towards the top of the photo: Jade and Nanook with their mom and dad, Special D with his dad, T-Bone and his dad.
On the right side going towards the top of the photo: Titus and his mom, Gordo and Paz's mom, Kuma and Nova with their dad
Jade enjoying her treats from Miss Pooh Bear (thank you Zhuyos Mom and Miss PB )

I've got many more too! I'll go through what little video I took too. Unfortunately my camera battery died pretty soon, so i don't have too many videos nor do I have as many pics as I wanted. Some of the others took some awesome group shots too, so be on the lookout for those.

Re: Do Not Open With Dial-Up!!! East Coast Chowfest
Here they are!!! Oh what great photos! Look at all your happy chows! With dial-up, it didn't take long at all to open up. Maybe 30 seconds. Well worth it!!! So, are you hooked? Can't wait till next year's CF, eh?
Re: Do Not Open With Dial-Up!!! East Coast Chowfest
Thank you!!! I've been waiting to see these pics all day....they're all beautiful (or handsome!). I didn't notice any cream Chows in attendance...too bad Benny couldn't make a special appearance.

Oh good, maybe I'll remove the warning... I post so many pics very slowly with dial up, maybe it just feels like forever to post, but they're easier to look at.
Oh yes, we are hooked! I was sad to see the day end, it was so much fun. I think the park worked well too. And no rain, hurray!
Titus' mom, that photo of Special is wonderful! Hubby is already in bed, he got whatever bug I had and now he feels awful. I hope that we did not contaminate anyone at chowfest!
Fillyok, yup sadly no creams or blues. We'd have loved to have Benny in attendance!

Re: East Coast Chowfest
Oh no...Titus' mom, remember when we were talking on the phone and I told you that I had some problems with my computer uploading the pics? My computer overheated during that time and turned off, when it turned back on, it erased the pictures from my memory card, so all my pics and videos are gone except the ones I uploaded to photobucket. I've been sitting here sibbing, I'm so upset. I had so many good ones. Stupid computer.

Re: East Coast Chowfest
Maybe not. DId you change your batteries on your camera? If so, reinsert the memory card and the batteries and then make sure you close the battery lid correctly and you hear it snap. Then turn your camera on to view. It might just be your camera's battery lid was not shut tightly.

Re: East Coast Chowfest
Even I could not resist finally posting again for this chow fest.
I know that Katalin and Istvan had been disappointed and missed two chow fests before ...so they finally planned their own.
All of the chows are just gorgeous and you all looked like you had a wonderful time.
I wish I could have been there...but it was just too far and with the price of gas today !!!!
I am looking forward to seeing more pics.
Sharon and of course JR and Cheyenne

Re: East Coast Chowfest
Hey everybody, just getting you guys ready for some surprises!!! Last night when I got home, I decided to take my wife's (Mari) camera and do some post-processing on a lot of pics she shot throughout Chow Fest. I picked about 150 shots and individually retouched each one; cropped, saturized, lighting, highlighting and a whole bunch of other stuff to get the most details out of them (especially shots of the blacks) just for all of you
Here's an example of the before/after the processing:
First I will post the resized (500px width pics) and then I'll post the link to the photobucket album with their bigger/higher quality versions (in case anyone wants to print them out ). Ok, this is the order I'm gonna post the pics: chows groupshots, chow portraits, chow family portraits, Chow Fest group photos, and the last will be shots of Kuma, Nova, and Special D's hiking through the trails.
To get this started, let me post these shots of the awesome Chow Fest cake (thank you Titus+family!) and the awesome Chow Fest gift bags (thank you Special D+family and Zhuyos Mom):

Re: East Coast Chowfest
Oh wow... I honestly didn't realize I posted THAT many shots... I'll take a break from posting until the next page.
Maybe the 56k warning should go back up. Sorry about that.

Re: East Coast Chowfest
Rule #1...NEVER apologize for posting too many photos!!! These were great!! Thanks
Re: East Coast Chowfest
More great shots! That little Paz was the character of the group- I loved when he was by Jade and Nanook waiting for treats! Aloof be damned! There's treating afoot!
