In the first post in this series we discussed some tips about taking documentary images of bicycles. While that is a very good place to start, there is so much more to bicycles than just a sum of it’s components. Bicycles are one of the most efficient and elegant machines mankind has ever created. So why not show off just how beautiful bicycles really are. (Please note that most of the images in this article are not mine and I did attempt to get permission to use them, as a result some of the images may change over time.) We are not professional photographers but dabble in both photography and cycling. Do not take this article as the gospel on artistic bicycle photography but rather a starting point to spur your imagination.
Any post that contains a picture gallery will be in this category
Just finished uploading a few images from last night’s Bicycles East Tour de France Stage 20 party. Go and take a look.
This is the first in a series of articles offered as a suggestion on how to photograph your bicycle. These are not hard and fast rules and you have plenty of room for artistic expression. There are just a few things that you should know about how to take simple documentary types of photographs for your collection or for sending to your cycling associates via email or for posting on various bike related forums. We are not professional photographers nor professional cyclists but we have a passion for both and want to pass on some of the things we have learned along the way. Hope you enjoy it.
Over the next few months, we will be featuring a series of posts that combine two of our passions, Cycling and Photography. Please note that none of us are professional cyclists or photographers but over the course of many years and attempts at improving our skills in both areas we have managed to occasionally get a few things right and produce and image or two that evokes emotion.
To say that it was a hot day is just a bit of an understatement. Richard and I did not ride but all that walking and driving was still a lot with the heat we had. In all we took 1515 images. Presented here are just a few teaser pictures. If you are interested in the 134 images we chose as the better ones you can see them all in the Morrow Mountain Gallery Page.
