I am now a member of the national\u00a0<a title=\"https:\/\/www.sportsjournalists.co.uk\/\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsjournalists.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\">Sports Journalist Association (SJA)<\/a> and also the international\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aipsmedia.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Association Internationale De La Presse Sportive (AIPS)<\/a>.\u00a0Where you need to prove your income via sports photography coverage.<\/p>\n<p>So to mark this moment. I&#8217;m not going to post some images from a big international event or even a national one. Instead I&#8217;m sharing a few frames from the recent <a title=\"https:\/\/www.kentcyclingassociation.org.uk\/\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kentcyclingassociation.org.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\">Kent Cycling Associations<\/a> annual 12 hour time trial. Which is held locally in and around Ashford and the Romney Marsh. Why am I showing you this I hear you say? I want to demonstrate there is good, watchable and challenging sports just about everywhere. That make good subject matter for any\u00a0sports photographer.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #333333; font-style: normal; line-height: 24px;\"><a
