Experimented with manual settings for the first time. May be blurry, I'm still learning. Trial and error, they say!

Pastrana? I left around 2pm, he might have showed up after I left. As for the amount of pictures of Baggett, I have more of Craig and Villopoto and I got a lot of Ryno and Dubach and Mookie but they weren't good enough to upload.

Canon EOS Digital Rebel, mixing it up between a 18-55mm and 50-250mm lens.

Damn, don't tell me you scored credentials for Glen Helen's Thursday practice session, too.

Nice work. Keep learning.

Your experimenting with the manual settings on your camera and you got a press pass for a national? That's some jacked up shit right there. You are no photographer junior. Go shoot a softball game or your grandmothers card game or something. Wow. The fact that people respond positively to this garbage tells me 2 things. 1. Theres not enough honesty in the world 2. People have no fucking idea what makes a good photo. Shit does that mean I can show up to Budd's with the East Coast Snowboarding Mag I got a photo in and get me a vest? Sign me up.

So often it's not what you know, it's who you know. And in Ddavis' case, he has, if nothing else, made himself known.

What is the story at Glen Helen? What I mean is, can you just turn as a regular rider and ride the main track with all the big jumps and Pro riders?

Awesome photo's, I like to see the action without focusing in too close, which is what you've achieved. That way you can see what's happening in context with the rider and what he's negotiating. Very good.

I used to like taking photo's at pro races, I got quite into it.

But then I realised I was spending so long trying to get the perfect shot I kept missing out on the actual racing going on around me. I refuse to take a camera to a race now.

I guess its different if you're aiming to publish your photo's though.

Hey mate go swallow some jizz.

Devin don't listen to haters like this muppet. There's some good shots in there. Keep practicing, experimenting and improving. That's what it's about.
