How many times have you walked over a cycle lane symbol? One unemployed spring, I spent an early morning photographing cyclists wheeling their way to work through London Fields in East London. Most didn’t seem to mind that I was crouched with a tripod in the middle of the cycle path. I didn’t get knocked over … that would’ve been an occupational hazard.

Crouched? You should have set up the camera then used the remote to save your back. 🙂 Nicely done.
I know. I was being a control freak about where the cyclists and pedestrians would be placed in the frame. So much so that I lost sight of other technical issues.
Well, you’re a brave soul! The risks we photographers take to get our shots 😄 But I’m glad you did here! Beautiful long shadows and capturing the bike symbol in the foreground was a brilliant idea – completes the picture perfectly. Way to “make” a photo!!
Thank you. I did have to stop when the cycle way got to peak hour. But yes, without the bike symbol, it’s a more ordinary picture.
Great idea; live dangerously.
That’s about the extent of excitement in my life !
