The first thing with taking photos of cyclists. It’s much easier to take photos than it is to edit, upload and put into blog post.
Usually, I make use of Flickr uploader. But, if you want better photos, I find it quicker to do a bit of photoshop than to change all settings on camera. But, it does become time consuming.
The real difference to taking good cycling photos is to get a camera with reasonable shutter speed. On compact cameras it is just hard to get this. I do have a Panasonic compact I used for a while, but it just doesn’t have a quick enough shutter speed.
With ordinary shooting mode (above), the cyclist moving at around 5mph is a bit blurred. The other photos are taken in ‘sports’ mode. With the Canon 500D this takes advantage of its fast shutter speed.
The cross roads. Different people, different directions.
This bike could do with a basket.
