Went to a Jousting Tornament with some friends, including Scottnz, Wazza and iKirst from here.

Despite the main attraction being the Jousting there was a complete medieval carnival atmosphere, and lots and lots of people in full costume.

The Romans made a good showing:

As did some young Viking warriors:

And there was even the odd crazy Englishman:

Looks like lots of fun. Thanks for sharing.

Bless the recently fallen and their family and friends.
I have a Cannon with me at all times. You can't take the shot if you don't have something with which to shoot. :rolleyes:

Moppie, cool shots. The guy's face-plate was so shiny that part of you was reflected when you took the shot. He must have spent some time polishing his gear...

I missed this thread I suck

That last pic is a crack up, especially knowing that that guy snarled and posed and growled at the cameras for ages, so you could get the perfect shot

Great photos, Mr Moppie

And after all his posing, I actualy messed it up!
I got the flash setting wrong, and it wasn't strong enough to fill in the shadow in his face.

You know I don't recall seeing any Jousting photos from you and Wazza?

Excuse List as follows;

#1 ~ I've been busy organising projects
(I'm good at it, I even get paid to do it :lol: )

#2 ~ My PC has been woefully cast aside for a faster model at home. All the Jousting photos are on said cast aside PC. Said PC is distressed and choosing not to operate properly due to said cast aside-ness, upon every re-boot. Faster model is better option to use.

#3 ~ My time is limited and what spare moments I may have, I'm avoiding PC's like the plague. I sit infront of one all day. I should really upload pics to the work PC instead. It actually has the luxery of HDD space..

#4 ~ I'm a slack ass

#5 ~ I don't like my jousting photos..

^ ^ Pick one
