We joined with Warrington Camera Club to hear Rod Sloane present his unique and engaging ideas and images of cycle racing for which he has an enduring passion. Although Rod only became fully engaged with his cycling photographic activities a couple of years ago, he had progressed a long way in a short space of time. He outlined various approaches to pursue and emphasised the importance of accreditation to gain inside access to events for enhanced image taking opportunites.

Categorising himself as an enthusiastic photographer, wherever possible Rod tries to tell a story through his images, capturing not only the action but the emotion of the occasion and the spirt of human endeavour.  He is a very active participant and advocate of Instagram as an important way to share images, engage with a wider audience and selling some images.

He started his talk by outlining that his objectives were to educate; inspire and entertain and he ticked all the boxes
