Sometimes cropping a photo for the Featured Photo slot here helps frame the picture perfectly. Others it's a disservice, and the original is much better. That's the case with Bruce Buckley's shot this week. The featured photo is awesome, but the original is immeasurably better. Have a look also at Bruce's full gallery from the MABRX CX Champs on Flickr.
If you have a shot that you'd like to see as a Featured Photo on GamJams.net, send it in. I try to update on Mondays or Tuesdays with a photo from the previous weekend, so push a few my way as soon as you wipe down your bike and/or your tripod. And no, you don't need to be a pro or even need to take professional pictures. Whatever shows it like it was works great here.
So have at it.
Nice job Bruce!
There were several "Oh man, I wish I had taken that shot" moments while I looked through your photos.

Mike: Thanks much for the post and the compliment.
Les: Much appreciated. During the race, I had several "Oh man, what am I doing out here with a precious piece of electronics?" moments. I'm not sure what's more surprising -- the fact that I could get any shots to come out in that weather or the fact that my camera still works.
