Alek, I did the Megavalanche in the summer which is semi DH, and would have done some of the SDA's if I'd been able to get an entry. It's so much more expensive than XC though...

I buy the odd one or two, if they're half-decent or if I've had a really good day. I don't take any pictures myself really, and it's nice to have a few to give an account of what it is I do with my time.

Oliver Coats is indeed a good photographer. Dont think much of his fish supper delivery skills though.

Impressed with your third one Superstar_opponents
Rob - I was there too with an identical look, half way up the Bealach
(decided not to buy for some reason!!!)

(in anonymous all-black days before the team strip arrived...)Keep meaning to buy this one. I think I won a Prime in this race...

"pic taken by an amateur photographer at the race"
that looks far better than the bought one personallyPosted 2 years ago # -
^ totally agree.
With a few exception, most of the ones "bought" on here are appalling.
Oliver Coats has some pretty impressive photos on his site too, but again the ones bought are terrible. Take for example the original photo posted by the OP: what's in focus/sharp in that?! His elbow?!
Why on earth you people are buying some of these photos is completely beyond me: surely the memories are better than some half hearted photo, prob taken using a remote on a set position.
JD's photos are however, all, fantastic.

That's a bit harsh V83 - a slightly blurry photo can bring back the memories whilst not being technically perfect..... Wouldn't offer them for sale myself, but I'm a perfectionist
Just out of interest, how much are you chaps paying for, say, an A4 print, and do you buy them on the day or afterwards?
