Sorry, guys, but number 2 was straight off the camera - so no cropping, I just liked the way I managed to get three bikes in a line and equally spaced, quite hard on a track day as most bikes and leathers are dark blue or black :( Pics were actually taken on my 20D Chaz. As said, not really...

No sun today Blondie/Lynne :( They were taken last year at Peel corner, probably the best for the bikes, unless they are using the hairpin at the top of the "old" start finish straight. I tend to go to the Trackdays, as it's free to get in and "access all areas" :) If you have time it's worth...

A couple of pics from a visit to Anglesey Circuit/Trac Mon. Not really a motorsport tog, and I think bikes are more dramatic than cars. But......................... Ty Croes 2 by Andy T - Photography, on Flickr Ty Croes 3 by Andy T - Photography, on Flickr

Island in the sun, I like it Blondie :) I live there, and have spent a few days at the track. Will put a couple up for you all to tear into :)

Thank you all for the constructive criticism of the first version. Following on from the suggestions here is version 2. Please keep the comments coming. Many thanks, Andy. Sunrise at Four Mile Bridge (2) by Andy T - Photography, on Flickr

Cheers guys, thanks for all the feedback. Simon, it was last Sunday. Yes, did take a few, but the boats were moving more than I realised so are quite blurred. Will go and see what else I have. Mark II coming up :)

Taken last week. I did try some long exposures, but the boats were moving quite a lot. Sunrise at Four Mile Bridge by Andy T - Photography, on Flickr

My first real attempt at portraits. Constructive criticism most welcome. Sarah (2) by Andy T - Photography, on Flickr

Interesting thread Pat. I knew you through Match Fishing etc, way before I met you on here/Flickr, so perfectly understand what you are trying to achieve. My earliest "pro" work was with Sea Angler, and I remember getting a similar "lecture" about how to take pics with Fujifilm many years ago...

Intersting comment Mike. I always try to be mega - careful when changing. Had a friend try to clean a sensor on a 20D - Fail Had it cleaned at Focus (30 quid) - Fail Bought some cleaning swabs on here - Result :)

Both my local rags, part of bigger groups, do not pay for images from anyone, however good and whatever the subject may be. However, they are quite happy to accept "reader photo's". One of them actually has a Flickr group, and by joining that group you give them permission to use your...

Thanks for the comments. On doing a bit more research I agree with Cuthbert :( The Mark II came out in Sept 2010 and is compatable, but the Mark I isn't!! Not even in manual mode. Ah well, eBay it is then :)

Hi guys. Picked up my 5D II yesterday, had a quick play last night and a (very) quick scan through the instructions. Fitted my Nissin 622 flash unit and it doesn't seem to work "properly", the quick look at the instuctions seemed to indicate that it won't work properly, only Canon flash...
