ive been out with the tripod and self timer again for some of "special adam"'s self portraits :D. went a new style of shot for me. more vibey, mellow, and golden. the shots are all of me. the shots are all in what I call "camberloops", its the kamloops-esque side of swinley forest, near camberley. I was trying to capture the vibe of those solo sunset rides after school.

(note: Im from the UK)

I took 4, the last one is by faaaaaaaaaaar my fav.

so what do you think :) critique please. no need to spare my feelings. i dont mind. haha. need the crit to improve. :D

awesome. timed self portraits are my favorite, maybe considering all my friends are fat and lazy… tends to take a lot longer to get a good shot though. nice work. i particularly find it hard to get the focus right, because it's hard to know exactly where you're going to be.

nice pics. How long does your selftimer tick? Ten secs?

most of those i selected 20secs, just to give me a more lesuirely to my bike. whereas for 10 secs im stressing out running to my and getting in shot in time.

Thanx. :)

I do not know if my camera has the 20s option, sure about the 10s thing tho. And that always seemed a bit too of short a time to get some action down some technical trails.
