    Hi Jonathan,

    You seem to have got right out amongst the boats.
    You got a couple of nice shots.

    1 and 2 are my favourites with #2 probably shading it.
    The boats seem so close together.

    #3 IMO is not so successful not being wide enough to include all of the
    Dragon but not really close enough to make the action on board the subject.

    Well done and I hope you enjoyed the experience.
    I got taken out on one of those little crafts on the Sunday and taking photgraphs
    from one of those is not easy.

    Cheers,

    John.

    well done number 2 would have been a good shot except for all the tugs going around they spoil it its also tilted as im sure u can see but thats easily fixed same as John on the 3rd , so its number one best of the 3, but well done they a re all sharpe.

    Thanks All,
    I’ll have a look and see if I can tidy them up a bit.
    There were plenty of spectator boats charging well for the two weeks.
    €60 for an hour, suppose it wasn’t too bad considering it was very hazy and you wouldn’t have seen much from the shore.
    I used a 70-200 with the 1.4 extender
