Cyclocross Photos: Week Two

By Jeremy Dunn • 19th October 2011 08:03am • Posted in Events

Week Two of the Rapha Facebook Photo Competition took on the candy striped colors (which makes it curious that most of the photos were black and white) of the Rapha-FOCUS Cyclocross team. Jeremy Powers 10th and Julie Krasniak's 25th at Plzen, the first World Cup of the season is more than enough to celebrate that kit. We will look to the Czech Republic again this weekend as the entire team meets up for the first time. Take a look at their recap from the TRC website for a few thoughts from Jeremy and Julie. Take a look below at the four to vote on this week. There were some arty renditions of the team that popped up on the page and made for a nice transition from the usual race-pace photography with a wide shot of a fly-over with an unnamed rider transitioning off the top and another arty piece of one of the Team Rapha-Focus racers seen through a rain spattered window. However, that does not mean that the race photos are lacking with Jeremy bunny hopping the barriers and Chris Jones channeling Michael Jordan with his race face. Whatever the case may be, take a moment to vote for your favorite photo of the week in the comments section below. Then, head back over to the Rapha Facebook Page and post your best photo with the theme Gear to have a chance to win a Chris King Precision Components bottom bracket.

Photo B - it's all about the colour. B/W just doesn't convey the sheer exuberance of CX… and I loved the pink track tap at Supercross.

I shot D, and even I need to vote for B. That said, A and C are great shots too. Still, B all the way.

Photo A. Plenty of area for print. Its begging to be in a magazine ad. I also think it conveys the same feeling as most of the other photos I've seen from Rapha, grace and power.

Kyle Boesel

19th October 2011 04:50pm

I vote for C

Dirk Maertins

19th October 2011 06:07pm

I choose photo D.

Guy Smith

19th October 2011 06:39pm

Really like "C" but "A" is the winer for me, tongue hanging out, eyes totally focused, and just pinning it!

Tiercelin Geoffrey

The pic "B" il the best one with the water effect on the Rapha colors a beauty!

Tyler Hardie

19th October 2011 08:48pm

B for sure!

I say photo C. It's a great action shot and my eye goes straight to the Rapha on his shorts. I think the photo A is good but the lighting on his face is darker so your eye is drawn to his sleeve and the number 32.

Kaleigh B

Definitely c!

Emma Boesel

20th October 2011 12:51am

I vote C!

Photo B. I love C, but the color is too important for that jersey.

Kelsey Petersen

20th October 2011 04:20am

B, I love the texture in this photo.

Reva Royal
