I recently, literally, put a new slant on some old photos.

They won't win any prizes but when we look at the from an unusaul point of view and they become more interesting.

Look at how little rubber is in contact with the road when the are cornering at speed.

They must be mad!

Some look quite comical and look as if the rider is on some sort of funfair ride.

How can we change other photos to give us a different perspective?

Food for thought ....

I have heard of motor cycle racers touching the track with theis arms, but I have never witnessed it.


I spoke to Anthony Shelley after the race.
There is titanium in the pad of his sleeve.
This causes the sparks.
Riders may NOT have titanium in their knee pads as this would endanger trailing bikes.

Stay focussed,

I took this photo just 2 days before full moon in July

The photo of the month is a nice portrait by Renata Smyth who is in the three star category.

I received six National Salon Acceptances in the Beachcombers National Salon.

I received four National Salon acceptances recently.

I also received a Certificate of Merit for my photo "Double Trouble"

Also re-size to a maximum width of 510 pixels and a file size not exceeding 100 KB.

I went to the Tarlton drag raceway recently.
These are a few of my photos.

My Irfanview Tutorial Adding a Watermark to Your Photos is intended for you to be able to post photos on the net and discourage people from stealing them.
Add a watermark and  a copyright to your photos to stop the theft of your photos.
Also re-size to a maximum width of 510 pixels and a file size not exceeding 100 KB.

I received National Salon Acceptances for my photos "Blud Moon" and "Double Trouble"

More and more good photos are being copied and sold by theives.
Yesterday I came accross a person who wanted to know how to sue someone in China who was selling his photos in an image bank in China.
There are a number of things that we can do to protect our work.

• Re-size to a maximum of 510 pixels wide
• Add a watemark in a part of the photo where it is difficult to remove or make it very large. The photo "In the dust" has a watermark just under the orange part of the saddle.

• Add your copyright in terms of thr Berne Convention. it must read © the year 2013 and your name Cyril Furman.
• Add the copyright in a place where it is difficult to crop it off as in the top photo.
• Reduce the size of the file to less  than 200 KB. The photo "Koi fish" is just 21.1 KB.
• Name your file correctly. The two photos above are named "in the dust_cyril furman_copyright" and "koi fish_cyril furman_copyright"

The photo ""Koi fish" is copied from the gallery of www.photojudges.com
Note the very large watermark and additional copyright informantion.
This is automatically added to the gallery photos on the website.

The whole idea is to make your photos worthless to any theives.

I have removed a number of photos from Flickr as they were too large and had no copyright or watermarks.

Be aware of how you post any photos on the net and the terms and conditions of the website.

Please let me know if this blog is useful to you.

Stay focussed,

Cyril Furman
