Good to see that your firewall has let you back on!
Erm no it doesn't work. If you keep having trouble it might be worth setting up a Photobucket account as it's really easy to upload photo's to and submit 'em to forums/websites |

OK NO NEED TO SHOUT! It certainly doesn't look like britain which was why i asked (maybe that's because it was actually dry & dusty with a blue sky) Good to see some diversity in soil types. |

I haven't been shooting riding alot recently cos my bikes been out of action so that dpesn't provide alot of motivation to head to skateparks or pedal round woods for a day.
I went down and got this though, my favourite shot in a while. 
Self crit: although i don't want to crop it down i could have moved in closer with a similair comp so that the rider filled more of the background space. The leaves illuminated just above the flash are also a bit distracting. |
||||
| JAW |
nice shot. i'd say that the water mark is more distracting than anything else though! | ||||
| rad2themax |
Yer i see what you mean. But when i'm shooting photos for mates and stuff that will end up on myspace etc it's jus standard i put that watermark on there to get promotion. Is a batch action i do in photoshop.
Talking of photoshop batch actions, would be agood idea to make a thread for all the usefull actions people have and would like to share. I'll start one off when i've got time. |
||||
| JAW |
Ok, fair enough. Nice site by the way, did you make it? Why don't you post a thread about it here?
Yes definately do that, add a bit more to the site
|
||||
| rad2themax |
Yer i made the site Reason for no post is that its not quite done yet. Just that opening page is going to have an about me/descriptipn text and stuff what i haven't got round to yet.
Anyways, enough of the off topic
