Sold for Advertising!!
Hope you don't mind me sharing this, but I'm really quite excited about this one
I had an email from a cycle wheel manufacturer in Australia who had looked at my website and asked to purchase this shot for advertising, they will be using it on a 2m high banner at the Eurobike and Interbike exhibitions![]() I've contacted the cyclist who uses the wheels, which he was given as part of a sponsorship deal from a shop and he is more than happy for the photo to be used, so sale made! I usually just sell prints to the cyclists, so to know that a manufacturer has been looking at the site is a big step for me. Anyway this is the shot and thanks for reading my over-excited post ![]() ![]() |

'Tis a good shot, so no real surprise - really nailed that look of concentration and just enough motion blur! ![]() |

Re: Sold for Advertising!!
Thanks Mark, he was really nice when I spoke to him on the phone as well. Also very fast, I think he's just ridden 18mins & 12secs for a 10 mile race.

Re: Sold for Advertising!!
Great news Sarah
![]() ![]() ![]() You can still make out the maker's name even with the blur. I guess that is what they liked - obvious who made the wheels and gives their product a sense of speed. Congratulations! |
