Tuff crowd....

Sorry, but if you're going to sell your pictures they have to be quality....to be honest I wouldn't even consider posting a photo of this quality on my site. But we all start somewhere...

Hey thanks for visiting the same awful pic twice and commenting! I suppose I'll take my 3 POD's, my 100,000+ hits on pinkbike, and my lack of skill and go cry in the corner.....

Pinkbike isn't so much about photo quality re. the number of hits, more whats going on in them.

Saying that, 'ive got 100,000+ hits on pinkbike' doesn't make your shots any good. Not saying they aren't any good.. but you get the idea.

So no point bigging yourself up and getting cocky as you've got the pinkbike fanclub on your side

Still, got some nice shots!

Fair enough....its not about being cocky or bigging myself up however.... Somebody decided to make both private and public comments on several of my photos that had nothing to do with what I felt was important, which was the riding...which is why we're all here! I think my statement regarding hits merely underlines what you're saying now, perhaps in a different way??

With all the hype you give yourself and your site of course there are lots of hits on your site....but a critical eye will tell you your shots need work...

You're absolutely right.... the three POD's, the second place in the Kona "Shoot the Ride" contest, the honorable mention on NSMB.com, they were all products of this incredible hype machine I have built (and my Vulcan mind-control technique)......for any further resume inquiries, please consult my website.... www.ccvl.zenfolio.com

Two photographers lashing at one another, one photographer no better than the other (I looked at both your work), only difference is style and interpretation of what they seen when they captured it. I actually have cridentials in image critiquing so I am confident in backing my words, yet I don't exploit a photographer because its not the way I see it, it only shows insecurity in your own work, This industry is to small to burn bridges, come on guys, you would be better off going out shooting together and growing your skills. I'll join you, lets get out there... !

Well put my friend.......

Indeed...wait a second Clayton! Did you say my shots suck? Haha

No hard feelings about the Photo comments. I was wrong to make the comments I did.
