all have been cropped a bit, and some Colour Balancing (on Paint Shop Pro X)
Swimming for Russia (cropped a bit)

Hat swimming (cropped a bit)

Two man race (cropped as it was far away!)

There were a couple of others I liked as portraits:

VP, I really love your stuff, but why have you changed the shot you originally posted? .... IMO it was a better shot entirely... especially the colours, but mainly because it was a complete portrait. I could see a character in it.

 

[alef]

Will try to get some new shots for this. Here's my best portrait of 2008 thus far...

First entry:
Magneze

I haven't changed anything Are you thinking of my second entry? That's a full face portrait of the same man.

Oh, possibly! Sorry.

I thought the first one was a stunning portrait!
