Hi Gordon, welcome to the forum!
Unfortunately the images dont seem to be working ... im getting the broken image icon?

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Not sure how you link FLICKR images, so I changed the IMG links to URLs so you can get straight to the pages. Maybe another Flickr user can assist with posting tips?

Gordon - welcome!

Great to see another sports shooter on the forum - some very nice trackday shots there - putting the 1D MKIII to good use.

Have shot as Castle Combe myself back in my BTCC days!

Here is a screen shot of the code to copy on flickr and paste into a forum post.

First of all welcome to the site

They are 3 great action shots, but number 2 is my favourite as you can really see the concentration and determination in the riders eyes!

 

[Paul Lange]

Welcome Gordon. I quite like 3 for the drama in it, your left wondering if it all ended up with a horrible horse crash!

Thanks guys I appreciate the comments and more so the help in getting the images to display, I've used PCs for ages but am not into coding, so was relying on the insert image function but still get it wrong. All I can say it must be an age thing I am definately a senior having more "moments" every day.
Paul "riding off" is a legitimate move to shift a rider offline but I love the sound of horse crash.
Mark what did you do to make them "clickable"

Guide to making pictures from Flickr clickable

Here is an example image with some red areas added to make it clear.

1. Click the down arrow so the box opens up as in the picture.
2. Select ' BBCode' option.
3. Chose a size, I find 'Medium 640' is large enough to post on this forum.
4. Click the code in the 'red 4' area, this will be automatically all be highlighted so you can right click your mouse and then 'copy' and then 'paste' into a forum post.

Hope that helps,

Mark.
