Hey Mr Blue!!! Long time no hear! Funny you should turn up today. Were your ears burning yesterday? TB only said yesterday you had gone quiet and low and behold, look who turns up! :laugh:

I’ll take a stab at this photo of Chicken.

Lens I’ll go with 18-55mm VR. Shutter speed 1/1600 or 0.000625 second. Would you like me to add aperture and ISO?
Close !! I had a Hi Def 1.2 wide angled Macro extension on the end of the lens. Forget detective, go for Inspector.

Strucky dont worry about the map. It was a Comboyne one and if I manage to get myself lost up there I need flogging, seeing as though I grew up there. :laugh:

and I will be picking up sinkers and sorting them out into their respective sizes for the next 6 months. :angry:
That is if I dont get lost out in the bush first ,after the kids used one of my new topographic maps to start a fire in TB’s new pot belly stove! :laugh:

That $50,000,000 Goggle camera, certainly payed off that time!! I would have been happy enough to sit there all night and watch that over and over!I was just thinking. All that grass track and no spills. I find that hard to believe. Now we’ve had the glory shots I can’t wait for the carnage shots. Great photos. Thanks for sharing.
Roy, From all reports and from the footage I saw, a majority of the spills were out in the bush. Not that many incidents on the grass track. Which is surprising considering it was freshly cut with a slasher just before the boys hit it. It looked bloody slippery to us spectators. I did see Nickj make a miraculous highside save when he was riding Spuds WR450 though.
February 26, 2012 at 12:27 pm in reply to: Singles, beers, BBQ, Grass Tracking, Cinema, Hobbits #217024I did actually notice the pool looked a bit cloudy this morning!

February 26, 2012 at 10:01 am in reply to: Singles, beers, BBQ, Grass Tracking, Cinema, Hobbits #217005Had a few characters turn up at my place Friday arvo looking for a drink and a ride.
AS I had a crook back, I was relegated to the sidelines and couldn’t ride, so I was able to have a few more drinks than normal and I was happy to handle the catering side of things. The shed shenanigans on both nights were gold, as usual there were more laughs than my gut muscles could handle.When the boys hit the grass track, I had a ball with the new Nikon cracking off a few shots of the “racing”.
Connor got in the thick of things on his YZ
There was no racing really.
A good shot of Lefty
The Gravy shot of Spud
Spud was the man to catch on the grass track.
As TB said, there was a bit of corner cutting going on
Here comes Lefty
There goes Lefty
Chicken, had the pig roaring
TB was getting a bit close for comfort. I am amazed his barkbuster didn’t hit my head!
Tripper was just happy to sit and watch the stupidity
The peanut gallery
Meanwhile back at the resort.
More pics to come later.

I managed to get a few shots of the boys out in the bush early in the piece.
