Hi :)

Hi guys and girls...

I'm a noob photographer from Cape Town (SA), I found this site while snooping around the internet looking for tips on shooting inside the velodrome...
I didn't go to photography school, in fact I know jack about photography - I got handed a camera while helping out a cycling team and a year later here I am...

I mostly do outdoor cycling (criterium, road, time-trial and MTB) but I recently started doing track cycling also, and gosh is that awfully difficult.
I don't sell my pics, I do a local online cycling news page and use them to report and to give the guys and girls something to look at and remember their races by so I don't need to be completely PRO to do so.
I just need to give them something decent. - My races are covered by the best our industry here has to offer and I really can't compete, but I at least want to improve.

I'm going to need some help here.

Not sure how I was supposed to introduce myself really. so uhm - HI!
