To be honest Erik.

First one is pretty good, but you cant see the yoyo that well (the cup is dark).

Second one, the yoyo is blurred :-\

Third one is pretty good, but opposite of the first. The yoyo is a little bright.

Overall the middle was the best if it hadn’t been blurred out 🙂

Keep working at it :wink:

@Erik, BC is dead on. But, I would say the last shot is my favorite. Despite lots of sun, I think that photo still presents very well. Great color with the flowers in the backdrop, and you can still make out the subject very well. That’s my favorite one.

@kitebug…nice shot, that Rally with the orange rings looks great. Nice color in that shot.

Yea the middle is a little blurred I must have bumped the camera by accident.

They’re not wonderful, but it’s my first shot. Used a Nikon D70 with a Macro lens and a Canon powershot

I thought that was a Flow, but never saw that color before, so I second guessed myself on it. That looks so cool.

Cool. I can’t wait to see. I didn’t know you went to MWR. I’ve been looking at pics of the contest on Instagram. Looks like you guys had a great time.

Wow Erik, your photos just keep getting better. Lighting and focus looks fantastic. I was very impressed with my Glide. I feel so bad that it took me so long to try one. It’s a great yo-yo.

Other than the edges of the Chief getting cut off in the third picture, I like them a lot! But that’s just my OCD kicking in…

^ Nice photos, and very pretty shade of red on the Summit. The Sturm Panzer photo did not appear for me though. If you have time to re-post the link, I’d like to see that one.

I’m back to my yo-yo characters again. This one is called “GamerYo.”
