Photo's taken at last weekends World Cup meeting at the Manchester Velodrome. All taken with the new EF 70-200 f4L IS USM lens, which now seems to be working perfectly. Took hundreds of pictures & got about 50 that I like and have put on my website. If you want to look they are at www.sarahbrookephotography.co.uk

Thanks, blurring is due to the speed of these guys, it's really difficult to track them at the speeds they were doing.

Sarah, I've enjoyed looking at your pic's. I raced at the first velodrome in the 1950,s.

A track motivated by Reg Harris, to compete with the tracks in Europe. The banking seemed so steep we thought we would fall off, in fact one of the French teams would not ride until after a lot of persuasion; cheers...Kenny

Thank you Kenny, glad you've enjoyed the shots. I certainly enjoy photographing the track and am hoping to go to a session with some local riders later this year, I'll be able to have free reign where I go then.

Not been to an indoor track but I know how difficult they can be to shoot.



1/250th flash and there's still some blurring!

LOL Mike, there is indeed still some blurring! Get yourself to the velodrome and have a go, it's good fun!
