#817 Bike Race Photo Safari Photos

Posted on July 11, 2012 by admin

A couple of weeks ago we ran the bike race photo safari – a mini version of a photography class: short, intense and priced appropriately.

Participants learned quickly about safety, choosing best shooting locations and the logistics of capturing fine race photos.

“Thanks for the fun night and great instructions. As a rookie, I found it quite useful. I know I need to get out there and shoot a lot more to become more proficient, but these small clinics do help a lot.”

Thanks for the fun!

I like going fast.

I like making other people look like they’re going fast, too.

Mountain Bike Motion

The picture above was shot on trails in Gatineau Park using techniques of motion I will be discussing in next week’s Exposed! newsletter. Sign up to receive the newsletter at the top, right of this page.

I will be covering these motion techniques in my upcoming bike race photo workshop.

Yeah, it’s fun!

#32 Tour de France in moving pictures

Posted on March 19, 2008 by admin

I just saw an IMAX film – Wired to Win: Surviving the Tour de France.

I do appreciate a little cycling, competition and good photography whether
moving or still shots. And IMAX is pretty amazing – their technology and final product is usually spectacular! The science part of the film (about the nervous system) was interesting but I was there for the cycling spectacular!

We were not disappointed! The effects and camera capabilities were pretty fun!

I enjoy this kind of film for obvious reasons. But exciting visual media also feeds my creative brain and helps my work! These photos (available at ChelseaGallery.ca) are not Tour de France but they do benefit from an exciting night at the movies! ChelseaGallery.ca Mountain Biker
