#1 is a WINNER. Man, the more I look at it the more I like it.

Good thing you just got his rear wheel in the frame. :D

I'd like to see it cropped a bit and tweak the contrast.

Dang, I like that one!

Just like everybody, # 1 is my favorite - one of the more unique shots of a cyclist I can ever remember seeing.


I'm mainly here for the snacks

Would you mind telling us what lens/settings you used to get this shot? #1 really is amazing.

#1 is #1, that is awesome and needs to be framed.

Really love the Cavendish shot. I enjoy panning in this style, but it's risky in that the keeper rate can really suffer. Good on you for taking the chance. Never up, never in!

Thanks for sharing,
Jeff

The second shot is my fav. Shows the climbing angle well. If more of the bike was in the shot the photo would be perfect.
