E ci risiamo, di nuovo con una fotostoria in bianco e nero a tema ciclistico. Ho usato alcune foto scattate durante una gara ciclistica amatoriale tenutasi il Maggio scorso nelle zone in cui vivo. Ho raggiunto il posto preciso sulla mia bici e – come mio solito – mi sono fermato in più occasioni per fotografare gli atleti. Il meteo non era così sereno. C'erano molte nuvole, anche se – per fortuna – la pioggia non è caduta. In quell'occasione il traguardo era posto sulla cima di una salita lunga circa 3 chilometri. Ho scattato diverse foto lungo la strada anche in quest'ultima parte del percorso. Purtroppo ho mancato l'arrivo degli atleti sulla linea del traguardo, ma va bene così. A casa, ho spostato le foto in una cartella sul mio computer personale e – non più tardi di qualche giorno fa - ho pensato fosse arrivato il momento di pubblicarle. Ho scelto le foto migliori e le ho modificate: le condizioni meteo non mi hanno aiutato, essendo in prima persona causa di diversi problemi all'interno delle immagini. Ho provato a ricreare un prodotto passabile, cambiando luci e ombre, vignettature, contrasti, luminosità, e rimuovendo un po' di rumore. Spero che la serie di foto appena più sotto possa piacerti. Grazie in anticipo per esserti fermato sul mio blog.

And here we are, again with a black and white photostory about cycling. I used some photos taken during an amateur cycling race held last May in the areas where I live in. I went there using my bike and – as usual – I stopped many times along the road, using my smartphone to photograph the athletes. The weather wasn't so sunny. There were many clouds, even if – luckily – it didn't rain. In that event, the finish line has been placed on the top of a climb 3-kilometers long about. I took several shots along the road also in this last part of the competition. I missed the arrival of the athletes on the finish line, but it's ok. At home, I put the photos in a fold on my desktop computer and – not later than a few days ago – I thought the time to publish had come. I chose the best photos and I edited them: the weather didn't help me, because it caused many problems in the pictures. I tried to create an acceptable result, changing lights and shadows, vignettings, contrasts, brightness, and removing a bit of noise. I hope you like the group of photos you saw above. Thank you for stopping on my blog.
