On the other hand she could just carry on as she has been doing in the past as until you two came along everyone has appreciated the effort she puts in

Thought that came along with owning a camera.

Sexist.
O.k. then,I will.
Most people enjoy looking at a photo without anylising it to death.

time to put up or shut up i think, you must have a website or online stock so lets see how good you are link please. plus i am studying for a degree in photography so i can tell the difference between a good shot and a bad one.

trace i like your shots keep it up and don’t worry about what people like this say (if someone advises you to shot in sports mode then they don’t really know that much them self’s).

and just so you know professional match photographers take anything up to 10,000 shots so 400 is a drop in the ocean.

Then go ahead and post some. Like I've said on several occasions, I don't profess to be anything other than a happy amateur. If SOME people like my photos then that's good, I don't intend making a living out of it, although I have had some of my work published (both rugby and non-rugby) and it's something I enjoy doing.

I wouldn't say you are big headed, patronising in the extreme, but I can't judge if you are big headed until I have seen your work, maybe you are entitled to be.

Thanks to everyone else for the positive posts, don't worry, much to the no doubt consternation of Mr Abbot, I will continue to post my match photos aslong as SOME people want to see them.

There is of course always an option for you Abbot, just don't look at them LOVE!

1. I select the ones I think people would like to see, for various reasons.
2. See point 1
3. See point 1.

I take warm up photos because other people don't.

Thanks for the advice

I like the pics, and the 'makk attack' set of 3 made a great x-mas present and I believe Trace also donates any profits from the pics to the RSG/JRs which is very comendable.

Keep up the good work

I wasn't aware you were entering these pictures for the Turner Prize, Trace. I thought they were just pictures from Rovers games you wanted to share with other Rovers fans on the internet.

Judging by certain people's reactions to your pictures, I'm obviously wrong.

You're wrong?? How gutted do you think I feel? I've already bought my outfit for the awards ceremony

To be fair,I like to see them too.
