Two from this evening. This is Andy, a motorcycle racer from Gloucester. I've been suffering from high noise on my last few evening shots and these are no different - had to have the ISO way up (2000). But I'm reasonably pleased with the compositions, if not the quality. Live and learn.

Nicely done, love the mood and composition here. the noise isn't overly noticeable at these resolutions.

On a good learning curve. Ed.

Cheers guys. Quality wise this one wins. But it just feels a little generic, though I'm sure Andy will be happy with it.

Derek, maybe I'm being picky here, (Andy No3) but the eyes are not balanced, thus Andy's left eye dominates and draws my attention.

That's a good call, Graham. Somehow I have to get to the stage where I spot such things there and then and can deal with them as they happen. Alas, I'm still at the stage where I have trees growing out of people's heads!

You are learning fast and are way ahead of the pack.
