Cycling photographs

I stopped by the Big Shark bicycle shop in St. Louis early tonight, hoping that I would still get a chance to see some of the photographs exhibited at a Dec. 4 show there. Unfortunately, the photos were there for just one day.

Nevertheless, I did get the chance to meet Matt James, one of the photographers who had artwork at the exhibit and a bike mechanic at the shop. He pointed me to his Web site, http://www.mattjamesphotos.com, which has some very nice racing photos. I like his use of blur to portray the action of bicycle racing.

Just for kicks, I looked for some of the other photographers' Web site. John Musselman, the webmaster of STLBiking.com, has a lot of his cycling photos online. His photos are every bit as good as his Web site! Check out his photos here: http://www.pbase.com/stlbiking/root. Please visit both his site. John has been nothing but cooperative with in providing links to Roger Kramer's Favorite Cycling Tours as well as the Belleville Area Bicycling and Eating Society and Tour de Stooges.

The other photographer whose work I was able to find online was Kim Morris. She has a knack of catching the emotion that often is present in bicycle racing, plus she regularly photographs events throughout the Midwest, which are available for sale. Check out her site, http://www.kimmorris.com.
