Today I was "racking" my bike in preparation for my debut triathlon in Windsor, which takes place tomorrow. I'm a bit nervous to say the least. Just as I was preparing to register I saw James Cracknell, Olympic rower, adventurer and all round nice guy. I asked if he wouldn't mind me taking his photo and he kindly obliged. We chatter for 5 minutes or so about his adventures, skiing tot he South Pole, rowing accross the atlantic and obviously his Olympic rowing successes. He was interested in my triathlon debut, as he's a hardened campiagner and he put my mind at rest. He's starintg the race early tomorrow so he can be back in time to cover the event for Channel 4 TV where he is a "celebrity pundit". James is #14 in my 100 strangers project and my second famous person.... I don't think I'm going to be able to maintain that kind of ratio !!!

A little part of the web for me to talk about Photography, what I'm up to, share experiments, recent shots, hints and tips. To share my (limited) experience with others and to gain further skills myself.
