I went looking through my sea otter pics for shots of kyle the other day. Came across a lot of stuff that I'd never posted. Since it doesn't look like my dreams of becoming a rich and famous mountain bike photographer, published far and wide is going to pan out, I'll just post them in this thread- enjoy! :redX:

[OGRipper]

Yeah but that is one clean shot, so damn crisp it looks posed even though it's not.

 

[derekpearson]

Derek do you have any sanjay pics other than the posted ones, he always entertaining...

 

[Scurry]

Awesome pics! Its to bad that your plan isnt working out, Id rather see your pics in magazines more that a lot of the stuff out there now.

This is a very true statement, I use a "my pictures slideshow" for my screensaver and it is almost 100% derek's pics...Huge fan of his work, he needs some more exposure

Notice I cut out "rich," but why not? Your photos are far better than a lot of those published in mags and in ads...

It's a matter of knowing people rather than talent, I think. With your talent, you should have no problem selling your images. I don't know if you have the time to devote to making contacts for MTB photo as opposed to your other moneymaking photo genres, but it'd probably be worth it...

Then again, I've probably just told you nothing that you don't already know.

I'm not sure if I have any of SanJay or not. I'll post them up if I run across some though, and thanks for the words of encouragement ...
Maybe someday I'll get discovered-pass the word would you?
In the meantime-
Proof that downhillers are lazy

If I remember right, I think he was cheering on Palmer.
