GB Ultras

Great fun shooting a trail race for GB Ultras between Glasgow and Edinburgh at the weekend. The route starts outside the Riverside Museum and follows the Forth and Clyde Canal past the Falkirk wheel at which point the trail swaps to the Union Canal. The route crosses the River Avon across a Georgian aqueduct, some rain at this point made for some nice shots across the cobbles. I played with some slow exposures and flashes at the start and finish.

Lizzy Hawker promo shots for North Face

​While working on my last project at Everest base camp I also had the great fortune of spending some time working with inspiring Lizzy Hawker. Lizzy is an endurance athelete and world record holder for the ‘Everest Mailrun’, a route taken by those carrying letters to and from expeditions at Everest base camp before the opening of Lukla airstrip in 1964. The route is a dizzying 319km from Everest base camp to Kathmandu. Lizzy already had the record with a time of 71 hours, which she has now successfully beaten with a new record of 63 hours! Her principal sponsor is The North Face who needed some new photography of Lizzy in action. Here's some of the shots...
