Some great action shots! The Forest of Dean natural forest setting is a great place to mountain bike! Some great tracks around there too.

Amazing I’m still selling the odd photo from the Forest of Dean Enduro, so here’s the latest feedback, which as you know, I love receiving.

Thanks for sending the photo – it arrived with no problems and I’m very pleased with it.

It was a great day for the enduro and the course was a cracker!

Hopefully you’ll get to ride it next year

Cheers,

Phil

Stuart (Rider no 263). Thanks for your order, I’ve tried sending your photo to you but the e-mail address you provided doesn’t work and the e-mails I send keep bouncing back.

Can you contact me so that I can give you an alternative method for getting your photo.

Thanks,
Al.

It looks as though the timing people didn’t take the 10mins start delay on the Sport category into consideration.

I’ll let you know if they fix it.

In reply to Alan.

Jon, Thanks for the feedback. It does actually take some considerable time to go through all of the photos and number them, order them, and get them ready for the web so I can see why some people might not do it. I do, and I’m glad to hear you appreciate my efforts.

I’m actually in the process of writing a blog post with tips for MTB event photography and that is one of them, so it good to see that it pays off.

I’m glad you were pleased with your photo too. I don’t make much profit from selling them, the prices I charge simply cover my costs so the main thing I get from it is the ‘feel good’ factor when people say they are happy with the photos. I might try to make some money from it in the future by revising my prices and offering more options such as different sized prints, photo mugs, mousemats etc. So it would be good to hear what people actually want. Do people want a physical product such as a print or would they prefer to sort that out themselves from a digital image file?

Hi Chris,
The resolution of the photos are approx. 4272×2848. Plenty big enough for enlargement and printing

It isn’t an automatic download, I’ll send it to you via e-mail once the order is placed.

Thanks,
Al.

What resolution will the actual high resolution image be if I order one and also do I download them straight away if I order one?
