Waking to a fine day on the second day of racing was a relief as it meant I would not have to flounder about trying to keep all my gear dry and shoot at the same time. As soon as the flag dropped two riders, Ryan McKay (Cannasia-Cannondale) and Timothy Lim took a flyer off […]
After each of the stages I tried to grab some quick portraits of some of the riders. I felt sorry for them having a camera shoved in their face as soon as they had finished racing but hey, that’s the life a cyclist, pro or not. I took my inspiration from an amazing photographer Timm […]

Critical locations for shooting are either inaccessible or have large machinery parked in the way. The […]
May 2010 – As you will see from the images below the Cool-Dry Conservatory construction is progressing extremely fast. More arches are being erected every week.
