That's a sweet photo, NoKnees! Where was this taken? That's a tasty-looking pitch!

Love this one, Old Timer! It's a great story and I love how there are two separate but connected sub-plots :)

I think this is a sweet thread. Thanks for starting it, jetrim.

I've got a couple here that I think are worthy. The first one is my Polish friend Milosz, capturing some Utah singletrack action for his magazine bikeBoard.

The second is a bunch of the photography press at the Olympus E-P1 intro. I wish you could see more cameras in this one. But there's a lot of chimping going on. It's funny how photographers only see things through the camera. We have a very hard time actually just stopping and looking at something. It only counts if we get it with the camera :)

I added a new category to the gallery: Photographers In Action

Please go to your photos in the gallery, click on the "Edit Photo" link below the photo info section and change the category of your photo. If you didn't know you could edit your photos after you posted them here, now you do :)

And who says that photography isn't a competitive sport? :p

So how much $$$ is represented in camera equipment in that shot!!

Here is one from the race I shot at the local velodrome a couple weeks ago.

LOL - yeah, nuts huh?!

During the peak, there were so many 500mm's, 600mm's, and I even saw one 800mm that you'd think we were covering Tiger Woods through an opening or that Madonna was hiding somewhere in the woods. Not 5 inch birds 20 feet away :p

This one from the recent frog jumping festival.

I had to smile as the technique appears all his own. And painful too!

Here is one from this weekends wedding.

I crossed this guy one hour before the start of the Tour de France this afternoon. He was set up in a narrow street 300 yards after the starting line. Looks like an interesting project.

He's a serious one, isn't he, Charles.
Good shot!

My new friend Taj, she may be using Canon now, but she sure enjoyed using my D300 with 70-200mm f/2.8.

Here are a few from a recent ballgame on the sidelines.

Grandson with her camera.

Here are two that meet the criteria.

I think these will qualify

Hey old timer, pretty amazing shots there! What kinda lens where you using there? It's amazingly sharp.

I asked this fine gentleman if I can shoot him shooting and he had no problem with. He's also got a copy of it by now ;-)

Late as usual, but I'll play. Both images taken with a Leica M6, 50/2 Summicron

ah, charles...perfect.

Hi Adina....thanks. Wish I had popped onto the site earlier, lots of great photos in this thread.

Forgot...this might be my favorite. My niece's wedding, taken with a (gasp) digital camera. :-)
