Hi Chica,

The 2nd looks to be a classic trots shot (like what you would see on the news etc). So well done. It seems to have captured the essence of the event.

I would have preferred to have seen the <INSERT RIGHT WORD HERE> cart with the rider in the 1st shot as well.

:ot:
I like taking photos of the sunset in the salt pans next door to globe derby park when I am in Adelaide.

Hi
I would have liked to have captured the driver and gig as well, I had lots of attempts but this was as close as I got.. next time maybe! Thanks for compliment on #2. The wetlands neat Globe Derby are a nice spot too.

Love the first 2 especially, only thing being the car in the background of number #2 - maybe something you can learn at the PhotoShop course - how to get rid of it :)

You are really diversifyng Cathy and have done well here with what I imagine is a difficult subject to get right.

#1 appeals to me for the sense of motion and speed...with a bit more of the sulky (?) & driver this would be even better I think.


Well no doubt you will be back there next week trying to get that million dollar shot - good luck and enjoy the challenge!

Cheers
