Here is a teaser shot of Baggs and Joseph. oh and PhotoJohn if you read this Lancaster says Weir is scared to ride this trail and wouldn't if invited to?:aureola:

Wow, that looks like some pretty insane terrain! Great job on your angles and the off camera flash looks perfect.

Thanks need a few more flashes and some PW's! Doing it all with canon's IR is sorta hard!

The 1st and 3rd I duplicated the BG and used screen to darken the skies a little and brushed back in what I didnt want darkened. The HUE SAT CURVES and sharpen!

Nice shots, make me eager for the New England snow to melt

while the 1st and last show the insane terrain , I like the 2nd one best

[ianjenn]

Thanks, we get snow like 3" thick around here 1 day a year!

Weir should be afraid to ride that trail. He's an awesome rider - way better than I ever hope to be. But there's a big difference between his skill set and Lancaster's. Lancaster has 50 pound balls.

Great Picts. Awesome action.
Do you ever worry you will momentarily blind the rider coming off that cliff with the off camera flash?

I wouldn't want to ride down that trail either. That's just plain scary. As for the flash bothering the rider, it doesn't. In fact you barely even notice it. You'd really have to point the flash directly in the rider's eyes to cause any problems.

Yeah I think Richard was just joking around after he heard about mark's article in the new Decline. There is another of these in a little over a month. You know any fast bay area pros they are invited!:thumbsup:

The pic I removed B4!

No usually not like tad said they are locked on what is coming up and typically just notice the flash in their periphery.

The first one could use more contrast.

Ryan moved to Colorado. I think he's in Colorado Springs. But I'm sure he'll be back on the road with Theo when the race season starts.
