Downhill MTB Riding From Today

[ianjenn]

We went and shot some today. Joseph was the tester. he is coming from a Trek Session. He said the Jedi felt better when the trail turned steep and got rocky. Which is about 80% of this one!
SMOOTH was the word he used.....

The last one, for me, is the winner. Even though it doesn't show the downhill as much, those head-on eyes make the shot. - Terry

Oh - that trail! I always think of it as Richard's trail

I've never ridden it and probably never will. My interest in that kind of thing has sort of waned. Love the photos, though. I realize there's probably no vantage point for this but I really want to see a long, straight shot of that rocky roller. I think that would show off how steep it really is. A long, telelphoto shot from the side might do it, too. I always go telephoto and long when I want to make something look steep.

Thats cause it is/was his trail 1:42 down that is just STUPID fast. 1:45 is as close as anybody has gotten. thats new style tires and nifty suspension that will make slow pokes into Nico!

AHAHAH

The colors are weird I am editing them on the work computer and replace em later in the week.

THNAKS

I like the 3rd and last picture in this set. They are the ones with the least motion blur. the 3rd one looks good because of it being an action shot but a bit blown out on the whites like his shoes. The last one is great. You got his eyes in focus really well, you can tell he is hauling through that turn and the colors look great. The white on the bike are a bit blown out but I think it still looks great.

I would edit it a bit by upping the contras and making the blacks a bit darker. Just to try to take a little bit of attention away from the whites on the bike.
