C&C please

nodabs - nice shots - nice and sharp...the only comment I would make is the background detracts from the subject - a little too busy....

I'd say guilty!

Of making some nice images. Shame about the backgrounds/location though.

Some judicious use of the crop tool may be in order here ...

For instance, in the first image, conder cropping just below the rear wheel. Include just a little of the top of the fence, but nothing more.

Show us how that looks, and tell us whether you think that makes the image better or worse.

Well exposed and nice and sharp and I agree with Gary on background.

i know what you guys mean backgrounds are the bane of my life in trials shooting unfortunatly it just doesn't happen in nice looking places. the hard part is to satisfy the riders and from the sports point of view you have to show the terrain but then to have the shot look good you have to cut it out. i'll have a go with some crop and see how it goes.

Whoa! Good shots indeed. The third one...how did that end? I have to ask..it looks like it could have gone one of two ways....

hehe nah he made it it he went rear wheel to the first rail then gapped to the second then down. that guy is actually 5 times national champ with the guy behind in that shot the perenial runner up. there really weren't any spills that day

will he beat steve marshes seven........

Next time you go out let me know I would love to get some trials shots....

i dunno if he'll beat steve's seven andy has joe nipping at his heals joe actually would have won this year but he managed to get like 10 dabs in the last 3 runs to finish 15-17.

i'll let you know when there is a decent ride happening. if youve got some flashes or even without these days tuesday nights at 6.30 on southbank there are always guys riding.

nonabs, great shots, now i would have a real neat lil video clip i know you would love to see it if you hadn't but what this bloke was doing on a pushy was unreal.ant seem to find it but was unreal to tha point this bloke was doing 360s from 1 railway track and landing on the other etc...

sounds like ryan leech was the guy on a norco with front suspension by any chance if so he has some sweet street style but Joe and Andrew from the photo's above actually outclassed him at the Aussie bike show still no-one else i know can ride along a chain or winch cable he is a very precise rider

here is a shot i got from last years bike show of Ryan



seriously nice guy too

Nice pics.

I dont mind some of the background in the pictures, i think it gives them an urban kinda feel, however a few little things could be taken out, other bikes lying around and people in the background that dont really need to be there.

Id also like to add that it must take a huge amount of skill to even attempt this kind of thing. I rode cross country for a few years (not comp, just for pleasure) and there is no way in hell id even try that!

I like this last one Paul. Well lit.

I ride a bike on cruisy stuff in parks and things, these guys amaze me with their sense of balance and stuff...
