Test your skills at the Sport Photo Workshop Series exploring bike race photography.

The workshop

The course covers four weekday evenings in June experimenting with the challenges of shooting races and cyclists. We will cover:

• equipment management for fast paced sports
• shooting high speed subjects
• motion basics
• use of creative motion
• dealing with different weather and shooting locations
• compositional details

The sessions will be held in different parts of Ottawa including at least one, probably two, criterion bike races as well as a session to challenge yourselves with creative applications of motion.
