Post your golfscapes here...

It only took one post of support in the Photo DO thread...FT has to have some golfers beside me.

11th Tee, Mahogany Run, St. Thomas:



14th Tee, Mahogany Run, St, Thomas...that's one hell of a water hazard.



I have more, but this is my initial contribution.

I haven't got a golfing bone in my body, but I look forward to seeing everyone else's photos.

Wait! I just remembered that I DO have a golf course photo! (I'm as surprised as anyone ). I was trying to capture the ground fog with the early-morning golfers moving through like ghosts as the sun was coming up, but the fog was already pretty much dissipated by the time I got there. Anyways, here it is; taken this past March at the putting greens of the Chuck Corica golf course, Alameda, CA:

Kukuiolono golf course

This is the $7 golf course in Kauai. I'm not a golfer, but enjoyed walking it and marveling at the outstanding views.

Thanks, boxo!

Pine Barrens, Worldwoods - Florida

Don't normally take photos when I golf. But there are exceptions.

This shot was taken at Pine Barrens, one of 2 great courses at Worldwoods (1 hour north of Tampa, FL)

i wish that i (1) was able to pull over on my way to work this morning and (2) had had my camera with me. as you may know, it snowed cats and dogs the other day in chicago. as i was driving to work this morning, saw the sun shining through leafless trees with the branches iced over and snow-covered evergreens (firs, i think). oh, and nary a golfer in sight, given that it was 8° at the time.

And here's the famed 17th hole at the TPC Sawgrass in Jacksonville, FL. The island green is off to the left. (You can click here for the full size version).

You could easily sell that as a stock image!

I'm not a buyer but I'm sure you'd find some advice in this forum if you were going to shop your collection around to stock photo companies.

I found another photo. It was only about a minute after I took the photo in post #3 above, but the light had already changed quite a bit. Taken at the Chuck Corica public golf course (first tee, I'm almost sure - is "tee" the correct terminology?? ), Alameda, CA:
