bentspoke Posted July 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 Very please, Thanks for your comments I saw quite a few press photographers around carrying some nice gear It's just a passtime for me, I gave up riding trials about 3 years ago sadly, and it's now the only event I go to. Wish I had the F2.8 version of the 70-200 zoom lens, F4 is a bit slow for woodland work, Out of 280 pics these came out about the best When ever a superstar rides the section it's hard to isolate the action from the crowd & other riders, Must be nice to get a PRESS badge and get into the inner sanctum :-) Rgds Ian Stoke-On-Trent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bentspoke Posted July 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 R2W, That's a fine Photo you posted also ! I know what you mean about the so called Press Please can you tell me how to bed the photo's in the post ? I tried but they came out very small so I up the resolution a bit and was told they were too large what size is best please and am i doing something wrong ? Here is another attempt again it's come out small. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrappington Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 Obviousley speaking from experience blagging is the only way to get these passes ie entrance to trials central party in the park Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
windlestone Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 Imagine James Dabill in mid section and he still has time to stick his tongue out at you Heath Jake Miller gave one guy a right roasting then took his press pass of him and ripped it up. The guys son was about 9 and wearing a press pass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 Jake Miller gave one guy a right roasting then took his press pass of him and ripped it up. The guys son was about 9 and wearing a press pass Because Jake & I travel to all the world rounds we see it time and time again so know the frustration of having guys in there who are purely there for a freebie. There was one guy I saw this weekend. Foreign dude, no camera, no interest other than being at the front and that's typical of what you see. Jake, unfortunately, is too busy at Hawkstone to control who gets press passes and who doesn't so it's passed to a third party who doesn't regularly do Trials or know who are genuine mainstream press and who are not. I might ask him to delegate this to me next year. I'd bloody make sure there was no freeloading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boriskarloff Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 (edited) I took a few pictures on sun on my canon a700 digital compact i dont think they will be in your league but im very pleased with the results some of which ive posted Edited July 31, 2006 by BorisKarloff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
windlestone Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 Must say Jake looked bloody busy every time we saw him considering the amount of trials publications or publications with trials in there are an awful lot of "press" good on him for personally policing it. If you get the job will there be enough passes to go out with the pink wristbands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
