You have some excellent cycling shots here and some very interesting lighting. #5 & #10 are really good IMO.

Thank you. The #2 photo was taken at ground level between the vertical bars on the gate that lined the side of the race course.

Excelent shots, I know it can be a bit of a chalenge. We were fortunate to have the world championship races here in Hamilton Ontario a few years ago.

Very good shot s, Ed. I shot the first in the series, here in New England, for Cox Charties the PRO's race around 5PM so the light was good and they were facing the sun as they crossed the finish. Can't get much better than that! Looks like you had same 'setup'.

Ed - Os, so here is where to upload images!!! I just signed on to do this here!
Anyways, heres a few shots from the Cox charities Cycling Classic, ran in June in Providence, RI.
These 3 are of the PRO Cat.1 race. Geting the two low angle shots, I just about felt a foot/pedal graze the right side of my head!
