They say you ran the race....came first, jumped off your bike.....and then took the pictures. From rumours do legends grow! :D :D :D

Matt. K - I wish.

It would have been excellent to be on the inside of the track like Ronza was today, to get closeup shots with nobody moving in front of you at critical times. The challenges we amateur photogs endure.

Haha - had a shot setup at Willunga Hill at yesterdays stage to get the riders as they come around a corner to see the big KOM signage - stood there for half an hour in the rain before some punters rocked up with their 350Ds and kit lenses and stood infront of me 2 mins before the riders arrived :(

Most of the photographers today spent the second half of the race perched underneath exactly where you and BigV were though :)

Ronza - so it can be as difficult on the inside :( BTW: here is a link to some other shots from today covering people at work: http://dslrusers.net/viewtopic.php?p=27 ... 8839342e74

Fozzie great shots..Ronza, have to agree after a while you actually have to start looking really hard to get a different viewpoint. Fozzie and I did ok considering the weather and public access..
