Some HDR shots from today's ride
Discussion
+ a quick snap of the bike.
-1 0 +1 Auto bracketing without a tripod. Some are better than others (half aren't even worth showing) as i'm still getting to grips with HDR. Holding the camera still enough is a challenge in itself when there's nothing to rest it on!
Oh and can anyone recommend me a lightweight xc tyre (450g-550g) in 2.1-2.25. The standard felt tar tyres aren't great and weigh in at 585g. Rocket Ron's sound perfect but their fragile nature has me slightly concerned

I'll be up for it if my forks come back from Mojo in time (sent off you warranty repair today )
Have you dealt with Mojo before? Super fast and keep almost everything in stock. Would bet that you have them by the weekend.I'd be up for a PH ride tho once that's all sorted

Do you both ride around the BH area regularly?
Funnily enough no; as the hound dog can't keep up, so I'm usually on 2 feet Really should do though; seems mad I spent Sunday dog walking round Swithland Wood before driving over to Cannock Chase
I'm definitely up for a local PH ride tho
I ride a bit around north Leicestershire but have not ridden Beacon Hill before.
I used to ride south Leicestershire a lot a few years ago. Even now I occasionally cycle from Bradgate Park to the Old Barn at Glooston for a small loop then lunch and a beer. The ride back across Leicester can be a struggle!
I usually head to Wales, Derbyshire or Cannock to be honest. In fact I just got back from a very muddy night ride at Cannock. Follow the Dog in the dark is awesome!
Llandegla last Saturdaym, which, again, was awesome!
I have pretty well finished work for Christmas now so can ride whenever.

Great photos, especially the first HDR shot.
I've not tried HDR before, I have a Nikon D5000 and I fancy giving it a go. Could you give me a quick idiots guide how to do it? I understand the logic, 3 shots taken and then combined, but I don't actually understand how to do it!
Thanks,
Dan
