Beautiful Holes and Memorable Moments in Golf

The Kodak Challenge, with 30 of the most beautiful holes and memorable moments in golf, wraps up this week with the finale at the Children's Miracle Network Classic at Disney.  Throughout the season, Kodak photographers Steve Kelly and Brian Wilder have captured some spectacular shots.  This week the Kodak home page features a very small sampling of some of their favorites.


Steve Kelly
Arnold Palmer Private Course at PGA West

Steve tell us, "the desert courses out west are beautiful, where else do the mountains come right up to the fairways?" He captured this shot early in the morning when the light was low which allowed for the definition of the mountains which, in midday sun, would look flat.  This pic as shot with a telephoto lens that allowed the mountains to look closer.



Brian Wilder
Hole #16 at FBR Open

This photo was taken during Brian's first trip up into the Blimp.



Brian Wilder
Magnificent beauty of hole #14 at Torrey Pines for the Buick Invitational.



Steve Kelly
Hole #18 at Pebble Beach

Steve tells us that hole #18 is the most beautiful of all he's photographed. This picture, where the players are at a distance, allows for the landscape shot to capture the beauty and the action of the event. 



Brian Wilder
Fans line one of the 30 Kodak Challenge holes.

This photo captures another key element of the Kodak Challenge - the fans.

Title: She Got Him to Smile
Photographer: Eric Yagoda

My father is a pretty stoic guy, but put him around his grandchildren, and he is all smiles :-)




Title: Real Life...Captured
Photographer: Megan Peck

I love the expressions, especially of the baby. I took this in my garage-on the floor with blankets and a black backdrop, so the lighting is all natural. It was taken in July 2007.




Title: Brunch
Photographer: Dave Mello

Picture taken: Carrboro, North Carolina. January 2009.




Title: Young and Beautiful
Photographer: Sulejman Omerbasic

I took this picture during the rehearsal for the opening ceremony of festival ¨Sarajevo Winter.¨ In sub-zero temperatures, it didn't bother these girls, standing for hours, they had fun. I just love the look in their eyes.




Title: Jude
Photographer: Mohammad Malak

I took this picture in the end of 2005 summer. It is so beautiful to show people the way you see beauty in your eyes...
