[another view]

That's great, congrads! Looks like quite a ride...

[SmartWombat]

I posted a full res crop from another image of the two wheel ride a while back.
It was definitely a fun ride !

Russ Swift (the stunt driver) said all you need to do is increase the tyre pressures.
And lock the differential so you get drive while there's one wheel in the air.
He doesn't weld up the suspension or anything fancy.
So if your car has a limited slip differential (like the Subaru WRX Impreza) you could try this.

Good for you Paul! It's about time someone recognized your talents and published your photos. Well deserved! Congrats!!!

[Janie]

That's Awesome! Great feeling, isn't it? Congratulations!!!

[SmartWombat]

It's great. Last time was when I was 17, front page of the local newspaper.
That was special, taking my film down to their lab for processing, scanning and printing in the paper.
Shame it took two editions for them to get my name right ;)

[Liz]

Congratulations! That's great news - you must be thrilled. Nice work.

I have shot freelance for one paper for five years now and they still get my name wrong! Every now and then my name becomes "file photo" or AP Photo get real when I don't get AP pay for those AP Photos

hip hip hooray!

[SmartWombat]

Me, talents?
I'm still learning.
Tried some bird shots today, got almost nothing.

[SmartWombat]

It's great.
And there's more !

I suggested that the cluib ought to have a library of photos to use for the press, particularly after major events like the 5th birthday and the London to Brighton Rally.

I've just been nominated Media officer for the club for my suggestion.
So I will have an alter ego at media@thesmartclub.com to handle that.

That means they may use more of my photos
Since I will be the editor for the library !
Me and my big mouth
Now I need library management software to go on the club web server.

[SmartWombat]

Thanks, Nat.
I could have sprained my arm patting myself on the back

Yeah! You, talents!!

It seems to me that everyone excels at certain subjects. I betcha with a little more time, your bird shooting (with your camera please ) you'll have some cool shots to show us.

[SmartWombat]

I have a few bird shots from today ...

[Lara]

Well geeze, what's wrong with those? Not bad at all Paul. Would like to see more of the wings of the first shot. All I have is a photo of those pain in the butt sea gulls that poop on my car!!

The second is an eagle. The first, a falcon?
