Hey - that one's got my little lad in !!! (Well he's taller than me now, but never mind). Great photo.
Good race too. Amazing how much quicker it is in the daylight!
And Brett - those truffles were just divine. (and I do mean were - none left now!) Gorgeous! Thanks
Wicked Photos, love how you fazed the background out, what camera lens do you use for that?
Bloody brilliant photos....god i miss fell running.
Any chance your going belmont winter hill this sunday hint hint wink wink :P
Great race. Cheers Brett
It's called "depth of field" and is basically a relationship between the focal length of the lens and the aperture used. Often referred to as the area "in focus". Only one distance from the camera is truly in focus, DoF is actually those parts of the photo that are sharp enough to appear to be in focus.
Dave was using a Canon DSLR, not sure of the model - I was trying to race! A digital compact camera uses a lens with a very short focal length due to the small sensor sizes used, typically 5 - 15mm. On a 35mm SLR these would be extreme wide angles with huge depth of field so everything appears in focus. Dave would have been using a zoom around 50 - 100mm so there is less depth of field hence the background appearing fazed.
Anyway, great race. Thanks Brett. Hope the front room was as accommodating as ever
Brett, thanks for a great race: I brought two of my boys along for their first ever fell race, they loved it (George was the one helping collecting the numbers) - result, yet another bonkers activity Dad has managed to brain wash them into!
Thank you Bob much appreciated, photoshop i usually do anything like that, but it be nice to have a camera that does it for me...It's called "depth of field" and is basically a relationship between the focal length of the lens and the aperture used.

Yes, you were right Brett, miserable affair and totally shambolic organisation
Well, alright, yet another fine race, as fell races should be. But don't tell everyone. Cheers, Brett, Dumbo, Derby Tup et al for your efforts. And I might turn up at the next one, if there's lots of free beer.
