    Mtn Biking

    Here's a few from last night. I'd be particularly interested if they seem too dark. I purposely underexposed the background, so it's the riders I'm curious about. I just got a new monitor and I may not have it calibrated just right yet. They look darker here at work, but this monitor is a POS. The last one I adjusted based on my work monitor so let me know if that one is too light. Other comments also welcome.

    I race down mountains on a bike and I take photographs, but never both at the same time :nono:

    Well I am not an expert for sure, and I don't have a specially calibrated monitor either, but I can tell that the last one is lighter than the rest....but IMO just right from this angle....the others are darker, but you said you were going for the darker background....but even the riders seem darker to me....

    But I am sure someone else with a better monitor will chime in....and give you the real skinny....LOL
