Some still shots I also did when I filmed the mini-documentary of Simon Hutchinson which can be seen in the earlier post. Also a behind the scenes image. Simon is now travelling through the United States. Check out his website and facebook sites for more info. The race started in London on the 18th February last and won’t end until sometime in July. As of today, the 1st June 2012, Simon is currently cycling across the United States. It’s been a tough old slog at times with sickness in India that required hospitalisation, and a road traffic accident in Perth, Australia. BUT he’s still going and is making good headway.

Oh how he laughed when I looked at him expectantly, and told him I was looking for a hill.Hills in Longford! Ha! Well we did find one eventually. A little lump of a hill with a lonely old tree. In fact the area we were standing on…
Images below from a recent sportrait. The first image of Sue running towards me and the second image of Sue standing was shot at 1/1000th sec. She is lit with one Elinchrom Ranger RX Speed AS 1100W power pack , an S light & the Maxi Lite reflector. Tom Bol, Photographer has been getting amazing sync speeds using his Nikon D300s.
