King Luis' Photography

Thought id kick things off in here, been ages since i posted anything in this sub forum. Been going through all my cycling photos the past few weeks and doing a few touchups. Still got a few more from the Paralympics to go through so might post a couple more from there when i get a chance

They're awesome, look very professional.



My favourite.

I always love these type of photos, no idea why.

Some real gems in there KL, good job.

Cheers guys cant wait for next spring, planning on going to atleast 3 of the spring classics as well as the Giro and the Tour again

I was looking at these yesterday and I forgot to say to you how shit I thought they are. I couldn't find the report post button, but I would use it if it was here because my eyes feel raped.

What equipment do you use? Have you added a filter or something with them on photoshop, they all seem to have a colour cast.

Use an Olympus EPL3 and E4000, yeah just do some editing on them in light room and use some fliters sometimes

Hey, no Sagan? Seriously?

All are marvelous, but damn it I need this in canvas for my wall!

There is a Sagan one in there!

Cheers for praise guys, cant wait for the 28th of this month. Going upto Alexandra Palace to shoot the Rapha Supercross for the day, first time doing a cross event

Not photography but just put a new web design project up on my behance folio, check it out if you like:

Le tete de la course website

Finally set up my portfolio site, loads of new and old work over on there

Your website looks brilliant, good job.

Decided to get my Sarah Storey shot from the Paralympics printed and it came today, pretty happy with it actually. Just need to get a frame when i get paid



Also my redesign for the Letour website was featured on a new site that showcases peoples redesigns of apps/websites, some awesome stuff on there was nice to see my work alongside some great work

Not related to photography but I think the design of your portfolio can be heavily improved. The fact that you have to hover over a big pink square to get a glimpse of each design is a bit of a put off.

When potential clients or anyone for that matter are looking at portfolio's they are only there to see you're work and you should make it as easy as possible to do that.

Simple suggestion would be to swap it so that all of the design thumbnails are visible but when you hover over them they turn pink (at lowish opacity) so you can still kind of make out the image (see the images here for example http://www.aidtheboss.com/).

Feel free to take this with a pinch of salt, I just think it would make the site look a lot better and I know for a fact that it would reduce the high bounce rate.

Anyway, photography related, love all the photos you've taken especially the one you got framed

I would agree with that tbh. Photography is great but the pink thing annoyed me too.

Not my photos but been making little banners for up-and-coming races and a feature seires for my blog, really enjoyed doing them actually.

Went over to Belgium yesterday for one of the biggest one day races of the year, just about got all my photos sorted and put up half of them on Flickr. More to come though

Was up in Lincoln the weekend just gone to see the Lincoln GP, really happy with some of the photos i got actually considering how crowded it was. Been talking to the organisers as well and will probably be getting accreditation for the race next year which will be pretty cool

Very good, one thing though, keep away from adding the sepia tone to the photos in post processing. Makes it look like instagram.

Went to Koksijde for round 3 of the Cyclocross World Cup this past weekend so here are a few of my photos from the day, first time shooting cross so wasn't sure what to expect but i'm happy with some of the photos i managed to get Will definitely be going again next year, its amazing how big Cyclocross is in Belgium was about 60 thousand people at the race throughout the day.
