Ridge Racer

Ridge Racer

Yes, that coloured speck is indeed a Mountain biker skimming across the top of some lofty cliffs that overlook Dovestones reservoir in Greenfield. How close this ‘Ridge Racer’ actually is to the real edge of  the ‘precipice of death’ is uncertain – mainly due to the focal length position of the lens and the aperture’s f-number setting – but still the overall effect is pretty convincing!

*Shot on a Canon 600d 18mp dSLR using a Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS mkll lens with settings at ISO-200, aperture at f/5.6, spot metering mode and an exposure time of 1/1000 seconds*
