Here is a couple more of Jack Thompson. I only put 1 on last night because I was to tired.



I need a lot of work on my portrait skills and composition.
For those that don't know, Jack Thompson is an Australian actor. He played the part of Clancy, an expert
horseman in the iconic Australian movie, "The Man From Snowy River" as well as some others.
He has been filming in the U.S.A. for a while now but I don't know what in.

Reminds me of Willie Nelson....with a slightly fuller face, nice clothes, and no braids in his hair.   Wink

For our overseas folk, here's a couple of links re jack.  He is a real Australian character.  When very young he was a 'Cleo' centrefold (yes, in the NUDE!), it took him a long time to live it down, and he is a great actor.

International films include Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, The Good German, The Assasination of Richard Nixon, Star Wars: Attack of the Clones II and many more.  His Australian film and TV appearances are too numerous to list.

I did get more Odille, 10gb of RAW images all up. I got some from the re-enactment and some of the horse riders on the ride as well. I tried to get some at the rodeo but it was to dark as the lighting was crap and I need a better lens. Even a friend of mine with a 5D mkII and a 70-200 L series had some trouble getting
good crisp clear shots, he had a good flash to.
I will process a few and post soon.
