National Cyclocross in Adelaide

I had a great time taking pics at the 2013 National Cyclocross event in Adelaide this weekend.  I always love shooting cyclocross because you can get really close to the action and choose from many different spots to shoot from.

I try to get around as much as I can and never stay in one position for long. This is why I usually take 2 cameras with me and try to make the most of the position I'm shooting from. I don't always get it right... and other times I feel I've nailed it.

I have many more images on my facebook page - www.facebook.com/jasonmilliganphotography

More track cycling photography...

After doing LOTS of photography at the track, I thought I'd try something different this time and set up some off-camera flash down at track level. I've seen this done before and was inspired by the moody, low key lighting effect, so I thought I'd give it a go. I manually zoomed in the flash head to about 80mm and 105mm to give the 'spotlight' effect.

Here's a couple of favorites.  The pics had a massively positive response on social media so looking forward to trying it again with some variation.
