SNOW Photography Contest - SoHe 2011

Avatar

GAMBLOR, BISH, MIZU KUMA, CRACKERS, GRAHAMGEE: Cheers for all your feedback lads. Well appreciated.

CRACKERS: Yeah lad, definitely bigger than it looks from this angle. But you could easily clear the whole thing of the central kicker, only it would be about the same size as the booter leading into this one, so none of the competitors hit it in that fashion. I guess hitting it this way gives the rider a better option of creativity.

Here is another I just stitched together

This was the Top Booter. Not too happy on this angle. Its clean (except for the lurker hanging out on the flat),
but this angle doesn’t do the size any justice

Is anyone else having dramas with Imageshack…? It insists on changing the size of my images when I upload them to an unusable 480x320..even though I specify in the upload options No Re-size. It also turns every 3rd or 4th portrait shot on it’s side for no reason. The only way I can make sure of a correct upload is to send each image individually and check that all worked as it should and then upload another and check and so on. Very time consuming and unnecessary.
Cheers guys.

Hi SnoPics. The easiest way I have found to post images is to have a flickr blog. You can upload heaps in one uploads. To post any images to another site is to. 1: left click on the image from your photostream. This image should now have a menu bar on top of the image with action and share boxes. 2: left click on the share box and a menu box with the info you needs appears.3: copy and you ready to paste. No resizing needed, as it is done during the uploading to your flickr photostream

 

Thanks for the comments.  Thats some nice stitching ARLS.  Wish i knew how the hell to do it! haha

Sometime you need to click the image again for the full size image to display. Try clicking the first image that shows up, then get the URL of the larger image. If not, I’m not sure what’s happening. Or just select 800 pixels as a selection instead of No Resize.

I must say, the level of photography is just incredible. You guys are all doing an amazing job! I’m so stoked I’m not a judge in these contests.

Sorry Snopics, no idea why that’s happening. I just batch resize the shots I want to post up before uploading to imageshack. But can definitely second what rider wrote about checking you are using the right link.

ARLS, I reckon I prefer the second shot, with the rider in green pants. Better angle, smooth hit too. Looks like it was an awkward place to find a really clean background and still have a good angle on the features. Good work!

2 very nice pics, bish!!!!!!

I also like the green pants shot of ARLS also!!!!!! With the pipe wall in there to frame it makes it look sick!!!!!

Cheers Mizu!

 

Bish, that top one, to me, looks kinda awkward.

The trick looks great on that angle, I just feel if it was framed with the rider on the right it would have looked a bit cleaner. I dunno, it does feel kinda strapped for space on that left side.

It is quite steezy though smile
