The image galleries on this page are from the 2012 Celtman Extreme Scottish Triathlon. For me the picture above says it all. Local competitor and mountain rescue team member Ryan McLean cycles in front of Beinn Eighe proudly promoting Scotland.
I am a former endurance competitor having run the Welsh 1000 a few times, along with Comrades and a number of 100km off road enduranceraces. The experience of these and my other sporting life has informed my philosophy with regard to action and sports photography.
My style as a photographer is to try and capture some of the emotion of athletes in action. As such the images are tightly framed so much of the dramatic scenery in which this competition was held is not available to view, with the exception of the scree shoots in Coire Mhic Fearchair (through the mist).
Though I have agreed to provide the images, royalty free, to the organisers, so that any suitable ones can be used for promotional purposes I am a professional photographer so am unable to offer them free to everyone. That said I have made the images available for a very low charge (£2.00 per image) if you only wish digital copies.
I hope you enjoy the images.
Geraint
