The Philadelphia Naval Yard Criterium is one of my absolute favorite races to shoot. It’s just something about the old naval base that intrigues me. The mix of old warehouses, machine shops, offices, barracks, and other buildings creates an incredible backdrop for great early season racing. I love the challenge of using the setting to give the event the character that it deserves.
For 2015, Tri-State Velo had to alter the course due to construction along the old route. I was disappointed, because there were some great old buildings on the other side of the warehouse where I was able to shoot some of my favorite shots in 2014. Even with the change, there were plenty of old and new buildings to use as a backdrop, along with the Philadelphia skyline and Lincoln Financial Stadium.
