I the forum has taken a lot out of the image with its compression

The shot I think would be better with a tighter crop to keep the action but lose the amount of background spectators Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Yorkshire Rolling Eyes one bit of a bike race and they own the sport Laughing

GJH, as Nick said a tighter crop, lose the 'clutter' it will then have much more impact. Also, it will do your pics justice to use Flickr and link them, the compression algorithms the forum uses destroys the clarity of the pictures.

Keep an eye out on here, we may have a Lake District togging day again soon Thumbs Up

A crude crop of yours to give you an idea Thumbs Up

+2 for Flickr Thumbs Up

Along with a tighter crop, i would suggest that you try and get down on the ground, at the riders level, this was taken on Grinton Moor, as that little French Cycle Race went past.

This one was just a local race, i came across, but think you get a better perspective from being on their level

Nice shot that Toeknee that TDF -9.
I like to colour coordinate my means of transport so you caught me on my Ducati yellow push bike leading the field with my new go faster sunglasses. Grand. Wink

But on a serious note - how the heck do you take such well defined photographs. Maybe I should buy a camera kit etc.. So my question is what would you recommend for an owd man to buy to take the first step on the road to photography Question


Note: I would only be interested in capturing landscapes.
Thanks
