Hrm. I'll have to see if I have one of my "crash and burn" tri, I'm laying in the medical tent with an IV, pale as a corpse. Woefully underprepared at the time.

banner shot from www.michigantri.com sets a nice tone.

Most of my pics are of specific people/friends. But I love pics of before races. It makes me feel the excitement and nerves!

Good luck, you're going to have a blast. Awesome venue and spectators! Here's a link to my RR with lots more pics.

Wow! 15 posts & this has not turned into the "Hottie Thread" yet. I thought we would start going after post #2.

Someone give me a refresher course on how to get pics in post, I am using photobucket.

Thanks for the link. I recognize so many of those places. Makes me long for summer here :( Great pics and post.

i use imageshack.us (when i need to resize pics) or tinypic.com

tinypic is easiest to use, but imageshack is pretty simple. just upload the file you want to post and select the link that is for forums and bulletins...

These are hard to beat

that looks ridiculous!

That is sweet.... fight the waves out and body surf in!!

I ****HATE**** that camera.

Thanks,

nice to see a link to my site up here.

The image you posted was not taken by myself, and I pondered the overall composition of it for a while before including it. The camera looks to be floating, but it is an interesting foreground given the great moments that they can capture.

Below is an interesting image taken by myself. Am going to have a look at the colour version again to see if it looks better. It is the determination of the expressions that I like in it. Possibly it could be cropped more.

Have been taking(and looking at), alot of images of triathlon for a year and a half and am only starting to work out what constitutes a great image.

Think it is fair to say that what constitutes a great image will vary a bit from one person to another.

There is an image posted on this thread from a photographer whose images are all pretty much amazing. I am working hard to try and get it together.

If anyone else has a favourite from my site they are welcome to copy and post it on this thread. Some of my favourites on the site can't be copied very easilly because I have encrypted them.
