Blurry shots due to no tripod and behind the judges, but should give you some idea of how some of the contestants looked. They sure as hell impressed me. I'd say that all but one definitely deserved to be on that stage.

... Heath and Gus impressed me the most from where I sat.

Great time today in a great facility with tons of stuff happening all over the Convention Center. I'd guess that the Expo part was every bit as big as the Olympia Expo and well attended throughout the day ..... Got more but I gotta get into costume for the Festival Of Lights parade and then close up the park after rigging up Tinker Bell for her last flight off the mountain top before she gets off for the weekend.

Looks like a good number of the athletes and fans who were at the convention center for one reason or another are well aware of the Original Pantry, Keith. Big lineup outside so we left and are planning to go back tomarrow at a less busy time.

Don't tell anyone on here know about it though. It's too damn busy already. (A "No one goes there anymore cause it's too damn crowded!" kind of thing.)

Thanks all.

Thanx for the pics, and to think someone on another thread said that Heaths obliques are too thick compared to Badells

I think these pics show the truth

I like Badell though those obliques will always be a problem for him.

Since they got 1st and 2nd, I think they impressed everyone the most, wherever they sat

As for the comments on Heath's obliques...they're fine. I do notice though that he's already getting his initial signs of the protruding
"INSULIN ABS" $:-\$

Hey stunt, sorry i missed you man, I was there and not sitting far from you most of the time. My daughter was getting restless so i had had to keep moving to different seats.

Good observations, pre judging went a bit faster than expected considering there were 31 competitors.

Heath did not let anyone down and the surprise of the show was Elmoussawi, especially his condition.

Did anyone have a Nikon D3 to capture this show?

stuntmovie · « **Reply #21 on:** February 17, 2008, 03:42:26 PM »

Nikon D-40X here, but I didn't have it set up right beforehand and it was too dark in there to correct it in time.

Why the D-3 question?
