Harlem crit...

It was a busy weekend. The Saturday Lucarelli & Castaldi Cup race was a warm up to the more bigger and longer day on Sunday. Great weather but was a bit too sunny for myself as well as photographing the race. A lot of patchy bright/shades on the course tend to throw off the light meter. It was a 6 hours shoot. Had some sort of Belgian waffle with pork and BBQ source. It was OK. Glad I made the decision not to bring my 500L. Not sure I could carry an additional 9lb lens on me for 6 hours. My long focal length was sufficient enough for the job. However, I certainly didn't want to be the photog shooting the finish too close while riders sprinting at 45 mph+.
