Crazy nights photographing Enduro racing.....

The Guernsey Velo Club is very active and organises many events during the year. In fact there seems to be no limit to how many ways you can race on a cycle.

Their Enduro Series even offers the chance to race in the dark... along bumpy narrow paths. That's CRAZY!

This is a REAL challenge for photographers as modern cycle lights are VERY bright creating high contrast in the pitch black. Combine this with having to manual focus, due to the darkness, and a photographer is left as exhausted as the riders after an hour of working!!

Well that's the effect it has on me!

Last night I photographed the GVC Evening Enduro at Delancey Park and I was relieved to have a few keepers after trying to beat the conditions!

There's a Gallery online if you are interested:
