Cycling Photography

March 08, 2023

It's notoriously difficult to take pictures of cycling, especially road cycling. Sports photography generally isn't easy, but cycling photography can be a real problem. This is mainly due to the fact your subject matter will just not keep still

What is Fine Art Photography

January 15, 2023

What is fine art photography? or to put it another way, when does fine art photography become fine art photography? Who decides what is and what is not fine art photography?

Jonathan Jones wrote recently in the Guardian newspaper: Photography is not an art. It is a technology. We have no excuse to ignore this obvious fact in the age of digital cameras when the most beguiling high-definition images and effects are available to millions. My iPad can take panoramic views that are gorgeous to look at. Does that make me an artist?

Can you teach photography

January 11, 2023

Are all of those students up and down the country just wasting years of their lives on degree courses studying for jobs that don't exist? In my opinion, the answer is yes, and mostly, although not completely, as you can go into related fields such as working one of the many photo libraries

Recovery Road

February 06, 2020

These are the dog days of recovery, the slog when nothing seems to change, no light at the end of the tunnel. Can only hope what I do now will stand me in good stead sometime in the summer. Heading for the first outpatient appointment with the surgical team to review the scans and X-rays and find out if I will walk again.

The Iconic Road

November 25, 2019

The Iconic Road is a work in progress. A new series of generic cycling pictures, rather than of a place, like the Stelvio or the Col du Galibier. I'm looking to capture the atmosphere or the vibe. I wanted to create pictures that give an idea of what's going on around you while you've got your nose stuck to the highway or your Garmin

Froome versus Merckx

June 10, 2019

Team Sky now Team Ineos, didn’t throw Froome under the bus last year but they did make him go and sit at the back. Allowing Geraint Thomas his moment in the sun. A just reward for all the support he has given over the years, but this year is another story.

Team Sky have lost the crowd

June 08, 2018

In their relentless pursuit of success only in terms of numbers, races won, Grand Tours won, Team Sky have lost the crowd. Ever since they threw Bradley Wiggins under the bus after winning the Tour de France in favour of Froome...

Shooting the Tour 5

December 31, 2017

It's ironic that the sport of cycling, especially stage races like the Tour de France, is one of the fastest moving of all sports yet requires its fans to sit still in the same place for hours, days, or even a week, just to catch a glimpse of the action

Shooting the Tour 4

November 03, 2017

The Tour organisers quite obviously hadn't taken my needs into account at all when deciding on the route for the 2017 Tour de France. The Col du Galibier didn't disappoint, but the Col de la Grand Colombier was a different matter.

Shooting The Tour de France

May 08, 2017

I did apply for one of the Tour motorcycles but they haven't got back to me yet. They must be very busy. Oh yes, and did I mention I'm also moving house? The week before the departure date for France. Well, really? What could possibly go wrong?
I will keep you posted...

How to Win the Madison

December 30, 2016

Bradley Wiggins and Mark Cavendish are the current World Madison Champions. No surprise there, these days we expect nothing less. The question is how do you win the Madison? You win it by gaining laps on the other teams, so how do you gain a lap on a large track such as London?
