I think I'm actually on #13, but whatever. I just shot the 10 day long Tour of America's Dairyland (ToAD) in Wisconsin. Have only just begun to go through them all, but here's just some samples. These are not 'best', just samples. I am kicking myself for formatting one card that wasn't backed up yet that had some KILLER shots. Live and learn. I can only post 8, so if you want to see more, just ask!

1. Fire truck at track side. I think they sent a guy up there to take pictures.

Cool stuff here. The crash is crazy! what a twisted mess that one is. How long did it take to get everyone back up and riding again?
"Excuse me but your foot is in the middle of my rear wheel!" "Yeah, your knee crushed my derailer and you ran over my head!"

Excellent set, great timing with the crash.

I spoke later with one of the crashed riders. "The pile on top of me just kept getting heavier!" LOL

That crash is insane! Is it just before the finish line?

About 5 meters past.

There are body parts visible with no bodies attached! :)

I don't frequent this forum all that often.. so don't know if this has been discussed before, but your watermark is painful to my eyes..

On to the actual photos, I really like #4, great expression. Nice crash shot as well.

Thank you. The watermark is doing it's job then.
I have others that are even more distracting. Cuts down on theft. ;)

ha.. alrighty.. but I've seen plenty of effective watermarks that weren't that obnoxious. Personally, I think yours is far too distracting and actually hurts the image. I kind of like the ones that are somewhat transparent and maybe go across the image.

This is my current one. If someone doesn't like the watermark, too bad! It's gone the second they pay the man.
I need to modify it so it's multiples of the name going diagonally across the image. I'm worried about some big time theft coming up on July.
