Photographer’s Notes My son-in-law races bicycles … on the track at the velodrome on Friday nights and off road at other times. This is fun to watch and hard to photograph.
I think I may get some negative comments about focus being to soft. It results from motion and shallow DOF. I think it contributes to a sense of motion. We'll see if folks agree.
FYI: the number 2 rider won!
