high res prefferd...but if its a good pic then i wont discriminate. the pic will be printed on a full piece of paper, so its gonna have to be a decent resolution.

Aye but his Morewood is now the shiny new toy to play on!!

Talking of nice snaps, I have a few preview ones that arent on Ian Lintons site yet, just uploading just now to share!

It would be rude to talk about him without showing him in his full glory..........

I would suggest contacting the photographer of whatever you choose, for a couple reasons.

They may be able to provide you with a better resolution copy for your project.
It shows that you respect their work and would like to ask before you use it.
and
It is just a nice thing to do.

That being said... here are some of my contributions...

Anytime that picture shows up this is the question that is asked. I am not sure what the deal was, and I have the guys name written down at home, but it sure does stir up some questions! :D

Motionboy2, this is one of the coolest shots I've seen in a while, very cool. The way everyone is flying around the center subject and the blur/shine of the metal, awesome...:thumb:

Hey thanks! :thumb: I was pretty psyched how those came out. It is the miracle of technology that lets you have a flash that is radio controled across a stadium with a telephoto lens so you can pan with the riders

Heh, I wondered the same thing.

However, more importantly, that is a kick ass pic Motionboy2, as is the bmx one. What lense were you shooting with for the DH pic? Fisheye?

i'm not motionboy2/josh, but i can definitely say that one in the trees is with a 15mm fisheye. i think he has the canon variant (he definitely has a canon body), but it might be the sigma fish...
