    Downhill
    Here's some shots from a shoot on Tunnel Trail a while ago. My crappy shock ended up snapping by the bottom, literally just riding along... so I couldn't do some runs w/o my backpack full of stuff.

    1.
    I'm pretty happy with this one overall.

    2.
    The contrail is pretty distracting and I wish the shadows on the dirt, below and rocks, up where I am weren't blending so much.

    I overall like this shot. I could layer mask a darker exposure to bring the ocean down.

    The leaves in the left-top of the frame distract me from him...

    Nice! Thanks for posting something that's not baskeball, Pat :D

    On that first one, is it really that off-camber or are you tilting it a bit?

    The photo of the rocky / step section sweet. I remember riding that and wondering if I could make it. And I did. And I was psyched. That section sums up Tunnel Trail for me. I need to hit that action again. It's been years. And yeah, I'd definitely bring down the ocean. No reason not to. Leaving it as-is is leaving it undone. Make it perfect.

    Nice! It's an awesome trail. I'll work on that stair section one.

    Great stuff. I wish we had a bit more greenery around here -- and maybe an ocean! ;)

    Those look good! Like 2 and 4 best. Number 3 may benefit from a multiply layer around 15-20% and brush back in what doesnt need it? Also the 2nd one in you 2nd post!!

    I like the 1st one in the 1st post. I like the foot and the lean. Makes it look like downhill truly is...A somewhat dangerous sport....

    Nice job..
