The Olympics are over for another, in this case, 3 years. As a cyclist my standout moment was Jason Kenny's audacious move to win gold in the Keiren. Some years ago I photographed him during training, a sight to behold! Roll on Paris...

The Gritstone Trail is only 35 miles, just a few hours out if you're crazy enough to run it. A few shots up at White Nancy, Bollington from Sunday's Gritstone Grind. And it rained for good measure.

My job is very varied. A night at the opera, some mighty fine performances - congratulations to the winners and to Clonter Opera for hosting a great evening.

A week on from the World Championships. Yorkshire did the cycling world proud. What a difference a day makes, blue skies for the women and the polar opposite for the men. Just about dried out now.

This sums up for me the pain and suffering that the pros went through yesterday at the UCI World Championships. One hard day for photography, one miserable day to race a bike. Nice to get Mads Pedersen, on his way to be the new holder of the rainbow jersey, dead centre in the shot.

Great night at the British Institute of Professional Photography Northwest Awards. Delighted to pick up a gold and bronze award for 2 of my images. Good to catch up with my fellow photographers too, such talent in the region. Well done to everyone who entered!

Apparently the skies over Eastbourne were a bit dramatic last night in the storm. I was there 10 years ago and enjoyed a similar experience. Fortunately I didn't get a soaking for my troubles!
