Cyclist



Since the start of the year there has been little in the way of outdoor colour to lift the spirits during mid winter, and today's photograph illustrates that perfectly.

A high pressure system sits over the UK, but instead of the usual clear skies we have a large bank of stationary cloud. Calm conditions are the result, but there's little on offer other than grey. I'm beginning to head home empty-handed when I notice movement out of the corner of my eye, and grab this shot of a cyclist riding along the surf line at low tide.



24-70mm f/2.8 EX DG Sigma lens. 1/80 second at f/5.6. Matrix metering. -0.33 EV compensation. ISO 100

Thank you. :-)

It's what photography folk call a grab shot: Camera up and fire the shutter almost in the same movement.
