How Cycling Photography is a Challenging Yet Rewarding Hobby
All over the world young women and men discover the bicycle riding sport every day, and in each event you will find some photographer or maybe two who is recording the spills and thrills.
Mountain bike and bicycle contests and races offer the unparalleled opportunity to take action photos, plus photos of individuals or large groups moving really fast over different landscapes. These opportunities offer a lot of chances where you could take individual shots (close-ups of riders concentration, striving, downcast or elated). Also, the environment is another aspect awaiting to be featured dense forests, steep mountains, sunshine, old towns, storms, rain showers, smooth and rough Some photographers just go a little further and see in the crowds of cyclists together with the landscapes an opportunity for taking abstract or semi-abstract compositions photos.
Cycling photographers could cover different sorts of cycling events, or can concentrate on one or two categories, like cross country, or road, track (for example, velodrome), downhill, BMX cycling, Mountain X. The same way, they could choose covering regional or local events or international or national events like Tourde France. Photographers can choose to use digital cameras or traditional film-based SLR cameras. Digital cameras offer the advantage you can take lots of photos on each event (never worrying about paying a lot of expensive film), after which you only keep the best shots and discard the rest.
They also allow photographers to edit shots after the event has taken place, by improving contrast and color, and crop away distracting elements, leaving only clear, strong images. These are very compelling reasons to use digital cameras when taking photos. It’s probably why this type of photography has gained wide-spread acceptance even early on.
Even using modern digital SLR cameras, the cycling photography could a little bit of a challenge because of varying and difficult lighting conditions sometime, and the speed of bike riders that are whizzing by, plus changeable weather conditions. Photos of bicyclists and bikes have been taken since nineteenth century. Subjects starting from high wheelers and “bone shakers” to tricycles and tandems, from cyclists slowly biking American and European towns and specialist subjects like circus clown bikes.
Recently, there were only a handful of photographers internationally-known that specialize in cycling photography, big names include Phil OConnor and Graham Watson. The posters, books, photo collections and postcards printed by them act as inspiration and guides for the amateur and the professional cycling photographers to help them improve photographic skills, judgment and taste.

Digital SLR camera…. cleaning, how & when ?
I am trying to learn everything I can about using my Nikon D80 well. I just got it a few months ago and knew nothing about photography with such a camera. I’ve been reading & learning. I am wondering, When is it recommended to clean the insides of the camera? Regularly? Once a month? Never unless you see spots on your images? And when cleaning is necessary, how do you do it, and what do you use? I have a lens cleaning kit with lens paper, a cleaning agent, and a little brush with an air bubble on the one end… are these what you would use to clean the insides? I don’t think my camera needs cleaning, and I would be very wary of actually doing it, but I feel this information is super important to know and I cannot quite seem to find a book that answers it for me.
Thanks.
First, check in the Owner’s Manual for the section on “Care & Cleaning” of your camera. You’ll find excellent guidance and suggestions.
Although there are sensor cleaning kits available, I suggest letting a camera tech do that if and when it needs to be done. You definitely do not want to use any liquids inside your camera. Let a pro do it.
Avoid changing lenses in dusty, windy conditions to minimize the chance of getting dust on your sensor. Always hold your camera with the lens mount tilted down.
One thing you need to buy (if you haven’t) is a UV filter to protect the front element of your lens. Choose from Hoya, B+W, Singh-Ray, Tiffen, Heliopan. Its better to clean a filter than the lens plus the filter will be cheaper to replace.
***** EDIT!! *****
Please ignore the suggestion by “endangeredsavior” about using compressed air inside your camera. That is one quick way to destroy your camera by either damaging the shutter or mirror or sensor (or all three) and by driving dust and grit into places inside the camera where it can do real harm. Compressed air is for inflating tires and beach balls and basketballs and air mattresses – NOT for camera cleaning.
